Does ANYbody have working storage bin lights?

I'm wondering if ther is a first genration rx-7 that has ACTUAL FUNCTIONAL storage bin dome lights?

I've never seen one....

Also, how do i fix mine so that they work? Know what circuit they are on?

Zach, disassemble the switch in the lower door frame on your driver's side and clean it. It comes apart easily and is a quick fix.

Ya both the bin lights and the key hole light work on my car.

Like Manntis said the lights have to be on for the storage bin lights to work.

My Rehastat still works too
