Engine Light

Just realized my brandy new 2010 Siver Storm Sport MT has no light in the engine compartment. Aren't we supposed to look in there after the sun goes down???? K_C_

i think most cars normally don't have lights in the engine bay. maybe on some higher-end luxury cars? you'll just have to use your own light.

I've never needed to look under the hood at night since I got rid of my Pontiac.

Cheers

Last car I owned with an engine compartment lamp was a '92 Dodge Shadow.

Wow, I have never seen a car with a light in the engine compartment.

Get a rechargeable flashlight and keep it in the glovebox.

LOL! Yeah, my Cougar had a light and NEEDED it! LOL! I happen to think it's a nice thing to have no matter what. I didn't realize there isn't one because I have had to open up at night. But I always have a flash light in the car anyway.

I don't think cars come with lights under the hood anymore. The last car that I had and came with a light under the hood was 94 Lincoln Continental... Even my Bimmers didn't come with lights under the hood...
