Subject:Re: westy: where does the light over the cabinets terminate?

Mark,

I do have an 86 built 2/86 to be specific. Seems there were many differences
between early and late 86 configs.

What do you recommend for the simple switch, as I mentioned I'm not using
the relay/hotwire located behind the drivers seat. I've mounted a group 27
deep cycle in the rear seat and am working my wiring from "mid ship".

Thanks
Shawn

You didn't say what year. The Westy kitchen light connects to the wiring
for the light over the driver's head, IIRC. If you have an 86+, it is a
simple matter to move all the interior lights over to the aux battery.
