The tailgate is 'designed' to dump recent rain into the trunk when you open it, and Of all the centre console lights, the one you're most likely to look for in the dark isn't illuminated. And on UK cars there's no door-activated-buzzer when parking lights have been left on. Regards, Dransfield (PS. And while I'm on the subject of interior lights, with all the computers on cars these days, you'd think that one could turn off the interior lights after an hour, so that its impossible to flatten the battery. Particularly those pesky ones behind the sunvisor which can get flicked on when you put things up there (eg. chequebook, chocolate bar, phone), but you're unlikley to notice during the day.)
