The wiring for the two interior rear corner lights has been cut and destroyed on my Bel Air. I have the switch on the left arm rest and 2 wires to each of the corner lights. I haven't been able to wire them correctly so the switch turns them off. Anyone have a wiring diagram?

You'll find the wiring diagrams in section 12 of the '49 to '53 GM Chevy Shop Manual.

The Bel Air hardtop is not included in the wiring diagram. has no roof dome light but rather a light on each side at lower window level between the quarter window and back glass.
Basically it would need a hot wire running from the headlight switch to each of the lights. Then a ground wire from each door jamb switch and from the rear arm rest manual switch to each light. All the switches do is complete the circuit by grounding it. The lights are hot all the time.
