Does anyone have any idea why pulling my headlight swith all the way turns off my radio? Also, none of my interior lights seem to work, I switched the fuse but that fixed nothing..

Stock or aftermarket radio? I have seen people tap power off from the headlight switch before and it may be a loose connection. I would also say to check all of the fuses and grounds.

it is an aftermarket radio, do you know where that connection would be so I can check if it is loose?

I would be behind the headlight switch. Again, check the all of the fuses first.

Headlight switches are a potential trouble spot. The connector was completely melted on my '89. Perhaps this is causing difficulty for you with the dimming wire back to your radio.

You can see a pic here http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=122421 in post 6.

I would have a look.
