Ok, here's the scoop -- I'm trying to ease back into things.
I bought a Saab.
It's working quite well, for the most part.
There's no light in the trunk. I took the little light-holder out to try and put a new bulb in. There are no wires connected to the light. I checked the socket the light-holder came out of. There is no socket. It was attached to carpet.
No wonder the light for the trunk isn't working, electricity can't travel through polyester!
Anyway, I tried to find the wyres for it and I couldn't, so maybe some day I will find them, but right now my little hatchback has got no light in the trunk, and this is a problem.
So I'm looking for some kind of super-cheap LED light I can just stick in there. If I get really clever I could even get the kid that work with a reed switch. I'm not looking to light up the world here, just a little light so I can find my junk in the dark. I was seriously considering some of THESE but they take button cells, and that turns me off.
I did also find a tap-light that uses 3 bright Nichia LEDs, and has a timer on it. The disadvantage is that I would have to tap-to turn it on, but I wouldn't have to remember to turn it off, so that would be cool
Ok, have at it.
