improving interior lighting
i want to improve the lighting in my car. i found this map light fixture at pullapart. it came out of a grand prix. it was just an idea that came to me when i saw it, so i grabbed it for cheap.
the idea was to mount it on the headliner where that center part comes down. i mean theres nothing up there why not use it. im not sure if it will fit right.
what exactly is behind that part of the headliner?
but if it works i think it will improve my lighting alot. i can replace the bulbs with some brighter festoon led bulbs.
anybody have some pics of custom lighting?

I was going to say LED the mirror and brake light. Where exactly are you planning on mounting this? If you take a picture I can tell you what is underneath it. I have a Camaro parts car that I am stripping down that I've already taken all of the interior out of.
this light fixture looks too big as you can see in the 2nd pic. its a little too wide. although i could make a custom one out of carbon fiber.
another idea i had was to make the lights totally flush with the ceiling. only the lenses showing.
