At night, we open the cargo hatch only to find that we can't see anything. The only light is from the main cabin. Did I miss something in the manual or did Acura not put a cargo light in the RDX?

 

There are cargo lights on the hatch. Please look up and turn them on.

 

The lights on the hatch have small black switches. Turn them on and they will go on and off when you open and close the hatch.

 

You know, I'd bet that you could find that information somewhere. Could it be possible that the manufacturer might have put stuff like this into the owner's manual? Nawww, why should they?

It is so much easier to show everybody on the internet that you are incapable of reading.

 

I added "Cutequeen Trading 2PCS White 5050 48SMD 48-SMD LED Panel Dome Light Lamp + T10 BA9S Festoon Adapter (pack of 2)", Amazon $9+shipping to my 08 RDX because the one cargo light wasn't bright enough. The LED has a sticky back and it took about 2 minutes to install. The rear of my 08 RDX is about 10X brighter with this LED compared to one OEM light. Could only install one since there is one cargo light for my RDX. Have the other as a spare for just in-case.
