    Question about dome/side light dim feature.

    So I have 3 323's. One 87 wagon, an 88 LX and an 88 GT. Both the GT and LX when you close the doors the dome/door lights slowly dim. The wagon however just shuts right off. I love this feature in the other cars and was wondering if it's a relay or the door switches? Or the illumination switch? Anyone know I would love to steal the part from the GT to have this in the wagon.

    There is a timer under the dash on the firewall above your left foot.

      Where the relays go? I will have to inspect both cars and see which one is different. Unless you can shed some light on which one it is. Thanks for the reply Clay!

            toss an LED dome light in there - thats a cool feature when it does dim. i wish the BG had that.

              Oh it has a 26 smd hyper white panel style and a 626 dome light for better spread! May toss a newer BG style dome light in next time i remember to snag one lol. Then I can add 2 led's in the map lights. I wonder if it's the same relay style in the BG?

                  It's right under the flasher unit on the BF,


                  Looks like that but that one is not the exact one.

                    The bg has a timer for the little green key light, you could just T off of that.
