Could anyone tell me if the Mk1s (in particular the vans) had interior light door switches - eg open the door and the interior light comes on?  If they did could someone post a pic as to where they're supposed to be?  If they didn't have others installed them?
Thanks!

i know both my 2 door mk1's have the light switches, in the pillar where most cars have them, i don't have a pic though

Thanks for that confirmation, but are they in the A pillar or the B pillar?

near the hinge of the door so A pillar

my mk2 van has them in the a piller  
 
hope this helps
 

Awesome, thanks guys!  I don't have any switches on the A pillar, but there is a small circular steel plate just above the hinge that looks like it might be covering the spot where one would be installed.

My recently bought mk1  '75 van doesnt have the door light switch either, just thought Ford had a lazy afternoon!
 The wires are there but no hole...only rust holes which will be fixed 1 day ..

That's handy to know too, I haven't looked to see if there is any wires there - I'd assumed that if they weren't going to put switches in they wouldn't bother with routing the wires.  The interior light is there, and the switch mounted on it has a 'door' position but obviously with no pressure switch near the door it doesn't work on that setting.

My mk2 has them, but the wires are black and look like earth wires. And i bought new switches from J/car, they cost a grand total of 7.50 for the pair.
