Default What's your 2 cents?

Did some custom work. Added map lights to my '89 CRX. What do you y'all think?

Its innovative to say the least. Did you just use three switches or a relay mechanism?

I added dome/map lights to the front. The only dome light that came w/ them is behind the driver/passenger.

No relay, I just spliced into the existing dome light wiring. I kept the old one so now I have both lights.

Oh ok. That's pretty cool. My 2nd gen integra had factory map lights, or whatever they're called. Then I went to an Accord and it has that crappy dome light in the middle. Nice work. :goodjob:

Well it came out of a 90's Ford Probe(I think, forgot to look at the year). I looked at alot of map lights while I was at a pick-&-pull getting other various parts. I liked this one best cause it's mostly a clear lens and the shape and size was just right for the headliner.

Nice, and the fact that noone knows what you did is a testament to the fact that it doesn't look out of place.:thumbup:
