Adding engine compartment lighting
Hey,
Anyone add under the hood lighting for dark nights when needing to see engine compartment. I'm thinking of a battery operated led light attached to hood somewhere. Photos?
Cheers, Jed

Keep a quality magnetic LED light in the glove compartment. Not a great idea to keep it in the hot engine compartment.

Yea, just keep an led light in the glove box. +1 This one can go in the front power outlet in the center console.
