I should have mentioned that "cut and splice" was required for the swap,
as the connectors are of different configuration. One other disclaimer
is that turning the dome light on at night to read a map or whatever
will probably annoy the driver behind you, as the cargo light will
*also* be on...

Subject: DML: Cargo/Dome light switch revisited
>Thanks to whom ever posted about switching the two wires, checked it
out and
>it will work, but not as easy as just switching the wires. Dome light
is

ground

switch

>light connector is a more "high-tech" spade clip connector and they are
not

>Dome lights are the YELLOW wire and the Cargo light is the PINK w/BLUE
