Hey All -

I don't know how many are aware of this, but I stumbled across a way to add the security lighting delay to my '90 TGP, possibly without getting too deep into the wiring.  I had obtained the door lock lights/handle switches (with their wiring) from a donor car at the junkyard, and later obtained a headlight/foglight switch with the security lighting delay slide all in the same unit.  Swapped the new light switch in and - presto !!!  I now have the security lighting option (headlights and dome lights stay on/come on when the key is turned off) .  I still need to get the wiring sections that connect the door lock lights/ door handle switches to the system in order to get the handle switches to operate the system and get the lock lights to light up, but this has been encouraging so far ... it appears to be a straight plug-in deal, with almost all the necessary wiring already in place... will post results when I get them completely hooked up.  Maybe not a big deal, but I thought it was kinda cool.  Any other info, or others who have already done this, feel free to let me (and/or the board) know.....

Thats because the security lighting relay/circuit is inside the light switch.  And all the head/dome light wires go to that switch too.  I don't think anyone has ever tried it though.  Nice job!
