Additonal lighting for interior.

Hi all,

Is there any stick on lighting that looks good for the Fit?

I would like more lighting for all of the passenger areas.

Map lighting for the front and reading lights for the rear.

Thanks,

Tom.

Well...."looks good" is very subjective....
I would say go to your hardware store and buy those dome push lights and stickem everywhere! Not only will you have very cheap lighting everywhere...but you will also be sporting that being abducted look, which can be an enlightening experience.....
oh no you dihhhent.....yes infact i did...i just went there with authority! booyah!



I have been seeing alot of small LED thingys around...I would imagine they would be compact and very effective. Are you looking them to be plumbed in to the wiring or just small batt power? As other countries Fits have them and you could pop em in. Probably not that cheap...but there are worse things....like $300 floormats.

darkride- search map light over in the fit lighting forum. there are people that have wired up a element maplight.

i put a small blue LED under the hvac control to illuminate the cup
holder area... that area was pitch black at night.

somewhat off topic but....
My cup holders are lit!!! I know I have posted this before but... is yours not lit? Once I noticed it I investigated further and viola once i looked under there it is clear that it was designed to do that. Its kinda bright!
I thought my hand was being abducted when I first noticed it.

Upgrade the domelight to a white LED version. Trust me, you'll get more than enough light in your interior!

there's a very dim light coming from under the hvac controls but
not enough to illuminate the cupholder area. until i put a LED on
there.
