map light for base model

I didn't think it would bug me not having it, but ya, I have to address that.

has anyone added the sport's map light to the base model?

Anyone know if its just cutting the headliner and adding the light or if the wiring harness needs to be added up the A-pillar as well.

you can tap the power from the dome light, cut a hole and stick it in. It should stay since every time you push it you're pushing it in. Mine hasn't budged.

yah, ALL of us with GD's had that problem. luckily for me, i found a diy from wdb and i just copied his idea and wired up a maplight from a STI. hahahaha.

considering that the GE sports have maplights, should be a very
easy cut and mount for you.
