1970 Cuda Convertible - interior lights
« on: October 27, 2016 - 08:31:19 PM »
New to E-bodies and may seem a silly question, but are there any interior lights on '70 Cuda convertibles.  When I open the doors, no lights come on.

TIA

Should be a light in each rear footwell, there are slots at the bottom of the rear interior panels, bulb sockets snap into a hole in the backside of the panel....
There should also be a light in the passenger front under the edge of the dash, it should have a toggle switch so it can be switched on but it should also come on when a door is open...

I don't know if all convertibles got the rear seat lights.  My GC 'vert had them, but my Slant 6 convertible did not.

Your Slant 6 convertible had them... They may not have worked but the sockets are on every convertible harness & the louvered locations are on every convertible rear panel that I've ever handled & I've handled quite a few...

Thanks everyone.  Since all of them aren't working, I'll check fuses as well.
