You're wiring it wrong.

If you run the power wire from the relay to the BULB-SIDE of the dome light switch, then the dome light will come on with the doors open (you won't be able to shut it off because the dome light switch will already be in the off position) ... then, with the doors closed, the dome light is off ... if you flip the switch on the dome light, it turns on.

There are two power wires to the dome light: One that goes to the switch, and one that goes to the OTHER side of the dome light switch.
