would overload that fuse more than likely

preston, without changing the fuses and maybe some relays its not really feasible. just get some LED's and it should be bright enough for you

Yeah got those 48 LED boards from V-leds, that'll make it bright in there.

My rear interior lights don't always come right on when I open my rear doors including the lights in the bottom of the rear doors. When the rear interior lights don't come on the dome light won't come on until I open one of the front doors. Sometimes it takes a good five minutes for the rear lights to come on. Or if I click on one of the rear lights and leave it on for about a minute then the all of the interior lights come on like they should. Do I have a short in my wiring? Any ideas would be appreciated!
