Default Overhead Console Down Light

When the Camaro was in the shop, they gave me an Equinox to drive. It had a down-light in the overhead console which illuminated the console below nicely. I did some digging, got that part, and installed it in the Camaro.

Just an eighth-inch hole for the light to shine through worked well, and, keeps you from seeing the LED itself. A bit of hot glue to hold it in place was all that is needed. I just tapped into the power wires that are up there for the Air-Bag-Disabled indicator light.

Another useful mod in the books!

Very nice. Looks like the LED color matches the ABL, does it? Care to share the part number for the light?

What about the W1H people and our red/orange lighting?

Is there an LED for that?

Maybe not in that style, but, a high-output red LED would work, too.
