Simple Trunk Light Mod

Switched my trunk light out for a 4-led from superbright, cant see anything in there now. Its nowhere near as bright as the stock bulb, but I like the color.

So I went back to superbright, got 2 of these bad boys:


Wired one up to my trunk light:


Voila, looks sick and useful too. Before and After:

Gets the job done, but I don't like how it's hanging out in the middle of the liner, it's kinda like cooling your boys off by walking around with your fly down.

I thought about that, but it would probably end up getting smashed putting things in and out of the trunk, these are indestructible.

Im thinking about cutting a square out of the liner and mounting them to the body, that would set it back where you couldn't even see it.
