I want to turn off my interior dome and map lights so that they stay off. I do not want them coming on every time I open my doors. How can I do this on the car listed above Platinum Edition? I have been looking in the manual and even tried to find some kind of forum or answer on Google and YouTube to no avail. Please, any information you can provide is greatly appreciated.

It is the fuse panel under the rear seat on the right side. Please remove the fuse labeled "INT LAMP" fuse, this will disable the lights you have requested. Check out the images (below).
