We have a 2013 beach.

Can you switch rear interior lights to come on when doors and boot are opened?

The front light above the dash is fine for the front but not getting kids in car seats and prams in the boot. We can turn one of the many rear lights on at the switch but have to remember to turn it off again!
 
The lights behind the cab area are run off the Leisure Battery circuit. I'm sure something could be done, but not easily. A good auto electrician would probably be able to help.
Probably the easiest way would be to fit an extra light on a separate circuit triggered by the cab light. It can be done.
 
Just in the middle of doing exactly this in my van. Seems pretty simple. Using LED strips for the footwells and micro LEDs in the glovebox. Taking feeds from the door step lights. Pretty straightforward no?

In the rear I might be tempted to take the feed from the boot light actually. Easier to access.
