    I got you guys beat on the cost. My rear light was about $4. I checked a bunch of stores and couldn't find anything nicer. Six years later and I still like it and use it all the time. It's more effort to install. It's screwed to the vent panel and hard wired under the headliner to the front light so it's very secure and dependable. It's not super bright, but more than adequate.



    I actually prefer things that aren't slick and stock looking in my VX. I like hokey personal things that make my VX mine.

    Ldub "Saw this seven dollar light at wal-werld today, & while I was trading barbs with Tom, Handee & Zeus,(in another thread) I was also installationing this unit & twistin up some burr-BON & coke...
    Who sez old guys can't multi task?"

    I'm agonna hafta try this mod. It'll be nice to have my "Eagles" CD back from the 1st mod. Was getting kinda tired of unsticking the little LED just to listen to "You Can't Hide Your Lying Eyes". Duh, guess i coulda used a CD I didn't like.

    1st: If any barbs were thrown at me they all went under my head

    2nd: yes dub is an inspiration to drink (heavily)

    3rd: it'll take me a couple of weeks to save up seven dollars, then i'll try multi-tasking cause I got Coke and Burr-bon.
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    First it was barbs now it's eggs.

    (so as not to TJ) I'm really looking forward to this mod (rear cargo light). I think it's the multi-tasking. I might start on the Burr-bon and coke now even though I don't have the seven dollars.

    Red face Almost forgot...

    Well, in reality, I did forget till now...

    As with anything that I paint or stick stuff to, I prepped the area with 90% rubbing alcohol first...

    Man, I just love to pick the long way.

    I hard wired leds into the dome light.


    Even drilled little holes to fit them...
