Tommy,as for your trunk light.My car didnt have one from factory so I grabbed one from the junk yard.If I remember the wire runs straight from the light and under the sill plate to the fuse block under the dash and plugs in there.But now,that has me thinking,wouldnt it stay on all the time.I have not completely finished mine so now I will need to go back to the junk yard and check one out thats stll in tact
What did U do to your G-body today??

It sure seems like the wire is long enough for that. Thanks! I may dig around with the trunk light a little today when I get done with job searching. There's a mercury switch built into the bulb socket, just like the hood light.

Well, mine doesn't want to play nice. I found an open connector under the dash that has an "#40" orange on one side, but the connector on the end of the cargo lamp harness doesn't match up and it doesn't reach. I thought "maybe it plugs into the dome lamp feed". No wires on the driver's side along the sill plate except for the tail light harness. Before I tear into a bigger mess, can anybody tell me if it ties into the dome light feed on the passenger side?

Mine didnt have wires along sill plate either.The flat black raceway under the sill plate will seperate and you need to run the wire all the way from the trunk and behind the back seat and then under the sill plate in that plastic raceway.The end of the wire should have a plug on both ends.I think it possibly plugs right into the face of the fuseblock.I can look at mine when I get home but thats not til 2 a.m.I know your aware that a fuse will have two pins for the fuse to plug into,the one you need will be a single plug possibly marked acc.I also noticed you said your dome light feed is on the passenger side.All the ones I have seen in the past is an orange and white wire that comes up the a-pillar on the drivers side.Yours may be different though.Not sure if Im helping or making it worse for you.I hope this info helps.
The contacts in the plug on the end of my light harness is female, not male, so it can't plug directly into the fuse panel. The only thing I can see in my driver side raceway is the tail light harness, which is in a black plastic sleeve. I haven't actually looked at the passenger side raceway.
Kielbasa is on the grill. =P~ Tomorrow is another day...

On my car, there is a bulk plug in the trunk i was thinking might be useful.
This is the wire with factory connector from the light.
This is the bulk connector all the way in the rear by the base of the driver side tail light inside the trunk.
