DIY Trunk Lighting Solution
I posted a silly thread about this before the meltdown and it was lost, thought I'd just repost the pics.

Sure it's pretty low tech, but no wiring means it is easy as pie and won't hurt the warranty

Mmm, I love the looks of white LEDs on anything. This gives me more ideas, although I might go hard-wired (I drive 20K a year... my warranty is going to run out fast).
