I want the door lights to go OFF

Did a quick search, but I can't find an answer to my question.

I want to be able to kill the door lights when either door is open. In other words, if I'm just hanging out in a parking lot somewhere and want to swing a door open, it's easy to kill the dome light, but have yet to figure out how to make the door lights go out.

Would appreciate any help.

It's a safety feature so it is not user adjustable.

As mentioned, either install a user switch (easy to do - could be discretely installed in the map pocket of each door - D-side only), or permanently disable them by pulling the bulbs.

Cheers!
