does the light work when its in the "on" position or "door" position?

or not at all?

tailgate hinge rivets: called monobolt, part number AFU1350

if thats not what your after, look here. complete door assembly picture with part numbers

- great resource for part numbers of all kind by the way -


interior light not working... I'm sure you already checked this, but
- make sure ALL fuses are good and properly in their spots. some cars have weird electrical connections between f.e. wiper motor and ignition (-make and model of this european car shall remain unknown)
- make sure the wiring is connected - try taking the complete front interior light unit out and make sure the plug to the switch is connected properly

good luck!
