Re: 1947 super clipper rear courtesy light

When I replaced the wiring harness on my 2126, I did not remove the back courtesy light/cigar lighter circuits. Those were abandoned and capped off. As suggested above, routing under carpet and front seat, then under the stainless steel door sill, I managed to fish the "blind spots" that Howard mentioned and wired all courtesy lights in parallel front to back. In that power lead, managed to fish additional power to the reading lights that operate thru a slide switch between quarter window and ashtray. All courtesy lights come on when any door is opened. I did add an additional fuse box fed from the head light switch which gives easy access for body lights, clock, dash compartment light, radio and heater fan circuits each with a proper sized fuse. It is mounted directly below the back side of radio/ash tray area. So far...it all works great.
