    Hi All,

    I'm looking to wire in some new switches for my exterior lights using the existing switch locations just to the left of the steering wheel (2nd gen). I know there's a fuse box there, and was wondering if any of those fused (or unused) circuits are ones which power on when the interior lights are on (i.e. dash lights). I am either looking for a circuit that comes on with ignition, but preferably one where my new switches will light up when I turn the rest of my dash lights on. Anybody care to point me in the right direction?

    Thanks!

    John

    This might guide in the direction. Covers each system and what fuses power them. Can always pick one and fuse a piggyback fuse tap.
