OK currently having that problem with my 82 Trans Am SE. They went to the shop and the shop butchered it more than they fixed anything and now I don't have headlights tail lights or the dome light and the trunk release button does not work. I'm banking on the fact that's all connected to a fuse or relay. Which one is it and how do I find it?

Hi GeneralDSM82, welcome to TGO

There is no single fuse or relay involved with your headlights, taillights, dome light and trunk release. But, all of those items are fed power from a common "fusible link", which is located at the starter. A search here of "fusible link" will turn up info on how to check and replace it.
