Getting used to my new 760Ti, and I _love_ it!

Ok, well, I've been replacing burnt out bulbs and so forth, but in my journey I've noticed that the center console lights (interior arm rest, rear seatbelt reminder and "rear seat area illumination" bulbs) never go out (come to think of it, I'm not sure about the seatbelt light tho). Of course, they're only on when the headlights are on, but I would think that unless the console lid is open the lights should go out, right? I don't know if there's a microswitch inside controlling the lights, or if the lights are just always on, but kinda bugs me that the rear seat area is always illuminated...I just prefer the whole car to be dark.

Anyone have any info regarding these lights? And no, I don't want to pull the bulbs out, I'll just put up with the fact that they're on.

Thanks,
Seth
