The wires must go to the fuse box somewhere so i could fit a separate switch on the dash for them

Compare to a Senator then. All 7 of the interior lights came on in those, and it was very easy to flatten the battery if you had a big-ish job involving the driver's door open.  :(
Besides, why would you need to illuminate the rear of the car when you get in the front?  :-/  :y  :y

The reason is because the cars is use as a taxi and at night the punters can't find their money as it's too dark in the back and sometimes i like to see what their up too.
There must be away i can trace the wire's and fit a switch

Bill how about running a wire from each door switch back to a small line of switches? Just run a common to earth for each switch then to each door switch, You can control each of them individually then ;)
