Finally got mine completely hooked up, I hope!  There was a thread on this
site that indicated that to run the rear cabin light, the big triple one, in
a Westy you needed to hook the aux power to fuse 3 [this would also run the
radio, lighter and maybe other things].  NOT IN MINE.  Fuse 8 in mine funs
that light.  I guess all these things are made individually.  And
differently.

I am taking it out tomorrow, Friday the 15th, and will see if it all works.
I'll let the list know if it does.  If it doesn't everyone will hear my
screaming.
