led dome lights

The '76 wiriing system is not like the earlier ones. Current paths are divided up on the engine side of the firewall. So if your car is stock - no electric pumps or fans, no electric winches or anything like that, the only issues may be those related to aging. Those will depend on environment.
Offhand, I don't know if the headlight wiring was beefed up from the years which used 16 and 18 gage. Regardless its a long path and that circuit that can be improved with a relay system.

One thing to be aware of with LED lamps. Often they have a more concentrated pool of light. With something like a dome light, where its desireable to diffuse the light over a wide area, it may or may not do what you want. May have to try a few to decide. One with the correct design to work with the reflector and diffuser.

How the dome lights work:
Power is connected to the socket at all times.
The return side consists of multiple wires. Each one is connected to a switch to chassis ground. Closing any one of those switches completes the circuit.

So if your LED is in any way touching ground, it will not turn off.
everything is all stock and untouched. i did a v8 swap, but all of the wiring is all the same. the only changes i made was adding a tachometer and oil pressure gauge. i appreciate the info, i will definitely take a look, and the beauty of also having a 75 duster is i can compare the two headlight wiring systems. i'll write my findings.
