Gen6 How do I turn off the Door panel and Interior lights?

Hey guys, these lights staying on have been bothering me for quite some time now. I have read the manual and searched but i cant find anything so can anybody point me in the right direction of how to go about turning these off. I thought after a certain amount of the time with the doors open the lights on the front door panels and the 2 in the rear on the ceiling would turn off but this doesnt happen for me. I show my car every weekend so the doors are usually open and I'm afraid I am going to kill the battery one of these days.

Any help

Besides the last two suggestions, install LED's and reduce the current used by around 80%.

+1 Look good, use little power, and stay cool.

I always afraid those bulbs are too hot for their housing.
