Angry A question

So I went to the drive in movies with some friends,(they loved the new ride!!) and when i tried to shut off the dome light so it wouldn't stay on with the back hatch up I found that the lights under the mirror still came on. Am I missing a button or switch somewhere to turn it off?? It really pissed me off. I'm sure it is a dumb question but I can't figure out a way to shut the damn thing off.

If no one answers this before tomorrow morning, I'll go out and check it out. Our next door neighbor has a dog that barks to beat the band if anyone goes outside after dark and I don't want to wake up the neighbors who already went to bed.

couple of things to try
use ur blinker light lever and turn off auto lights

if that doesnt work, i know this sounds stupid but use ur key fob and hit the lock button

they should turn off after 10 minutes anyway

The interior lights should turn of by themselves after a set lenght of time. 20 minutes according to the manual, but I don't think it is quite that long in reallity. No key fob/lock button needed.

Ten minutes is a long time at the drive-in ( imagine someone standing in front of your veh. ), so heads up , next time take some electrical tape (or something along those lines ) and cover the lights... Maybe even a black sock would do the trick. If it works ( try in at night before next trip ) keep it in the (glove/sock ) compartment.
