Hey guys hows it going? Just wondering whether the interior light can be turned off while the car doors are still opened as sometimes when its really hot i tend to open the door and that interior light doesn't seem to turn off and I don't want it to waste the battery.... Any help/ideas would be much appreciated! Thanks

Only way would be to wire in an isolation switch.

It should switch off the interior lights off after an hour or so automatically, so it won't kill your battery. I do it all the time.

You could pop the globe out, or if its like my old XC there is a fuse you can pull. Or you can buy an ex cop car. They have the courtesy licght switches disabled, or at least the unmarked car I had for a taxi did.

yea au cop cars came with an interior light kill switch, and i believe there is a loom for it behind the centre console dash. so all u need is that switch and that plastic part with two holes in it, one for the demister switch and the other for light switch.
