AUGH!!! another day another problem that needs help ASAP!!!
ok so yesterday after futsing with the door switch enough it started working and i had to tape 2 nickels to my door to force the switch in..
TODAY
while driving home the interior lights and all running lights went out, WHILE DRIVING!!! (It just got dark)
Symptoms
The headlight **** wont turn back to off, the running lights are stuck on, and when i have the headlights on no running lights are on front back or inside!
Cure?!?

Kevin-
Not sure about your interior electrical gremlin, but welcome to the "coins in the door-sill club"! Although you went a little cheap with the nickels- these are corvettes, you could have at least used quarters!

youre right! i could of atleast gone with buffalo nickelsor even the new designed special nickels - i think a mint proof set is like ~20
OR
2 other options
i could of used some 50cent pieces- YEAH!
OR EVEN the gold ?sacagaweah? dollar coins!!
WOW that is for 'Dem Big Balla's!!!
according to a SH|Tty as Service manual ( THAT IS NOT HELMS ) it is the headlight switch - removal instructions are disconnect battery !!?DISABLE AIR BAGS!? remove trim and panels and replace and "installation is reverse of removal"
its a Haynes Repair Manual- paid $15 for it, just wanted to understand more about my car and how it works- cool- says its for all C4's 84-96 but ONLY uses pictures of the TPI's - NO HELPTHERE !!
alot of things are different but its not a reference or guide- just a general maintenance learning tool!! -
Worth $15,
AND YES IM GETTIN THE HELMS MANUAL..... when i get some money
thanks

Well hey.. if you ever need emergency parking meter change.. just look in your door.. (though then your battery might go dead- as the interior lights wont turn off when you close the door) 
Is your manual the red one that has the picture of the disassembled C4 L98 on the back?? Thats the one I had, it is a POS, though I have used it to do a head gasket swap, and a cam install ..
But here is a ttt for ya.. someone will chime in I hope!
