Install a Second Dome Light...?

[AndrewButler05]

i was actually contemplating the idea of taking the dome light assembly from a 2007 sedan that was at pullapart, and daisy chaining it to the factory dome light. (and you know the red reflectors in the front door panels? I was toying with the idea of lighting those up when you open the doors.)

That's a smart idea, any intentions on pursuing it?

I can't remember which member it was, but someone installed a overhead console from a chevy blazer.

Sounds interesting, I would love to know who and see some pics.

I didn't hide wire, but I like this way. It's too far from seats, so no one see the wire.
What I did:


I removed a private plate because of subwoofer, so it can light up cargo too

Looks Good, but I would have found some way to hide the wire. I will probably move mine up a little farther to shine at an angle into the back seat.

Thanks for the reply,

I've seen lights intended for domestic closet use that run on batteries. You could easily attach one of these to your headliner with double sided tape above the back seat area for your passengers, which would provide sufficient lighting. It would require no wiring, nor have any external wire showing.

But it occurs to me that you might not want a practical or useful solution for this application. I think you are looking for something other than that.

Just give you an idea how can mine light up in the dark.



Thymeclock, if it was with battery, you have to turn on/off every time you want

I'd say that's bright enough, and I misjudged the angle in the picture.

looks good kyo. I only have the led in front. The back seats are scary at night

Thanks, and I know it's too dark in back seat.
I load my friends often or I put tools in back seats so it's very useful, almost necessary for me :P
