Dome lights don't come on
The dome lamp has a switch that can be put into several positions. "Door" "Off" and "On" If you want the light to come on when you open the door then you must have the switch in the "Door" position.
The "Off" position will only let the dome lamp work when you override it with the dash control and the "On" position will leave the light on at all times - door open or not.

How to bypass the ac pulley on a 2003 hyundai sonata
You can bypass the ac compressor by using a 82" belt. Feed the belt from the back of the engine at the water pump. Disconnect the power steering line at pump. It's a lot easier if you use some type of hook to hold/maneuver the belt. (I used a bent rebar) Follow this routing diagram I created. Bam! No more ac problems!
How to drop the drive shaft to get to the vapor canister to replace.2002 Hyundai Santa fe AWD GLS MODEL
Exactly which driveshaft do you mean? The one that goes front to back, (prop shaft), or the driveshaft going to the actual wheel?
If you are going to remove any of the drive/prop shafts you will need to drain the transmission oil. This will stop it dribbling all over the floor when the shaft comes out of the transmission! REMEMBER to Refill the Transmission BEFORE you drive it!
The 'prop shaft' is the easier of the two to remove BUT they are VERY heavy so have someone help. One end is fastened to the Differential flange with 4 bolts, the other sliding on a splined shaft at the transmission end.
Driveshafts to the wheel are a lot more work. You have to strip the lower half of the suspension to get the shaft out and the 'castle nut' at the hub end can be very tightly fitted.

2010 Hyundai Santa Fe Rear
I'd love to know how this turned out as have the same problem with 2009 Santa Fe now.
Broken rear window has been removed but cant open the hatch.
I have removed the internal liner and all the lever rods are attached. A bit of glass inside the door and I have tried banging on the door to unblock it. Squirted CRC in the area and will leave until daylight and have another go.
