Cam Light SW

Curious if anyone did their own custom or swap out for the light s/w that turns on an off the interior cluster lights, plus the dom light and the headlights. If you don't mind telling me what you used and maybe some pictures? Looking for something that looks good and some-what stock. Its a 89 camaro black bezel.

Re: Cam Light SW

i left the headlight switch alone but made the dome independent. but no light turns on when you open the doors.

Re: Cam Light SW

If this helps, I installed relays to operate the low and high beam headlights. The relays take power directly from the battery. The switch now just activates the relays, dramatically reducing current load on the switch and the old wiring, which will extend its life greatly. Also lights much brighter this way. All newer vehicles use headlamp relays. OEMs finally got smart.
