DIY: Maplight CHEAP! Thanks MOM!
Well got a nice stocking stuffer today....
She got me a random LED tap light style light. it's made by Sylvania and it's called the Dot-It. IT was really cheap I think and it's powered by 3AAA batteries. It is super bright and fits perfectly on the plastic section where the rear view mirror connects.

I love it and I have to have one. I'm always looking up thinking I have a maplight all the time.
EDIT: You'd better use good batteries. I can't believe you can only access the battery replacement panel from the backside...you know...the side you stick to things.![Frown](https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)

I just ordered two of those lights from Amazon today to see how they work (in purple, b/c it's my favorite color, LOL). I'll put one in the trunk and one above the rearview.
I was wondering if there was a tap-light that I could buy to stick in the car to get a bit more light; it'd be nifty if these work well. Your silver one looks nice; goes with the decor in the Fit. I just wanted to be loud and colorful, hehehe.
I was reading reviews on Amazon, and apparently there's a way to access the batteries by just twisting off the top of the light. I'll have to see if that's true once the things arrive at my house.
