Another LED Center Console Light Mod

I just read through the LED Center console thread, and it got me going on how I was going to make one for my truck. I went with a little easier route and it not nearly as involved, but just another option for you guys out there.


I'm a flyfisher and when I fish at night I use a 5 LED cap light that attaches to the bill of my hat. So I took the light and mounted it under the "tissue box holder" in my console. To mount it I just drilled two holes through the plastic with the dremel, and just simply clipped it in place. And that's it, I'm done.


Not nearly as trick as the other LED console thread, but I thought I would just throw it out there for anyone that doesn't want to mess with the wiring and such. Pics are in the camera, but the dial up is too slow at the house. I can upload some for you guys if you want when I go back to campus on Monday.

The only cost for the project was the 5 LED light which was only $10.00.

I bought the light at Bass Pro, but I believe they are pretty common at other stores. You turn the light on with the little button on the right hand side of the light. Runs off two small disk shaped batteries.
