Does the dome light come on with the doors open or only if you hit the switch?

The stock wiring diagram doesn't show a door switch.

CrazyDave,
Your information on how to do the roof is great. 'Chester Brzostowski' put me onto this topic. Best I could find was  Roof Insert Kit 35-36 plymouth & Dodge 4 door sedan. at http://houseoftops.com/roof-inserts/ .
Could you please advise what/how do you progress after installing all the bows eg.
hessian
tar compound
how thick
tricks and hints
I have original left and right main front to back roof pine rafters with no obvious pre-attachments. There is also other differences in brackets and mounting on the Australian assembled 1929 Q's.

Geoff57,

I have not repaired my roof yet, the work posted has all been Chet. I have just taken a few pictures and measurements.

See his details here > http://www.1948plymouth.info/1929/Work_files/2017/08312017.htm

and the main thread here > http://www.1948plymouth.info/28Q29U/index.php?topic=1102.90

If there is a specific original part that I can measure or take a picture of let me know.

Good luck!
