Is there a closer live wire than the battery that could be used to power the light? The front headlights are permenent live and switched on via an earth so was wondering if the rear lights are the same?

You could piggy back off the front interior light if you wanna take the roof lining down to do ithoram_jimny wrote: Is there a closer live wire than the battery that could be used to power the light?

Just noticed this thread , I think Car Builder Supplies do a door switch which has a very long plastic switch that can be cut to length.
In our jeep (which has no doors fitted!) we use a work lamp with a integral push button switch which is superb for reading maps at night etc
Also a couple of weeks ago I picked up a really good inspection lamp from Maplins - loads of LEDs and a plug in charger for charging in car as well as a mains unit but mostof the time it is used as a torch - very bright and only about £15, would double up as a boot lamp, breakdown lamp and a torch. Also been using it inthe TR7 as the interior lamps in there leave a bit to be desired
