RE: boot light

        You are correct; I went back to the wiring diagrams for this - 

        The '69 - '73 TR6s had a trunk light that is wired straight to
the
hot lead of the battery; i.e. The lights need not be on for the light to
function.
        Beginning in '74, the trunk light requires that either the
parking or
head lights be on for the trunk light to function. Mine is a 74, so of
course
the light doesn't work unless the parking lights are on.

        Go figure....

Hi Colin:

My 72 TR6's boot light does not depend on the headlights.
