I checked your site and there is not any way to place an order online. Nowadays it's very easy to set a paypal account and shopping cart. Make your site works for you, don't work for your site. Price is nowhere to find. Sorry but I hate when I waste my time checking a site where you can't do anything or find even the price.

I have a question: I understand when you install the Acura light it is possible to turn off the light while having the hatch open but is it possible to turn on the light with the hatch closed?

on off when the hatch is open. but when the hatch is closed
you get nothing. thats unless you take out the hatch switch also.

Pretty simple mod. I brought the last one in the US from Acura if anyone wants to know who it was.

Just an FYI the switch from a 94-01 integra hatch will not fit. I've had one sitting around so I thought I'd give it a shot. The plug fits, but the lens doesn't fit in the hole.

DDMWorks sells a neat 9 led setup for the trunks of a Solstice, but it will work anywhere. Just splice it into the existing wires. Choose white, blue, yellow or red. Really bright.

Great mod!! This is exactly what I was looking for. My girlfriend and I were trying to chill in my hatch, but the light being on the whole time was so annoying. We were trying to cover it with stuff, just to darken it up a little.

I remembered my 91 Integra had a switch light for the trunk, and I just knew someone had swapped a switch type into their Fit! REJOICE!

Its not brighter, its because it has an on/off switch in it where as the fit does not. Reading pwns you.

ahh, ok, my bad, didn't see the notes on a switch, I guess that would be worth it to change.

Excuse me for my possible ignorance, but why change the cargo light if it's not brighter? Better yet, why change the stock cargo light for another stock cargo light?

I must be missing something. .

Perhaps the ability to understand written English. The reason for this mod has been explained ad nauseum in this thread.

Niko3257, Thanks for posting this. Ordered one from my stealer today. It cost more for the part, but no shipping made it cost less than mail order.

The Acura cargo light has a switch that allows you to turn the light on/off.
