There is a 'thread' on this from a few months back.
I fitted to the rear of Ceiling panel (behind shoulder line) a small
black anodised 3 X LED Spotlight that shines forward to illuminate
'lap' and Panel area. I got it from Chief Aircraft, about $50. I
believe the company concerned is now bust! Can send photo to add to
your frustration!
Wicks have a Cockpit 'eyeball' Light on Page 139 of 2003 Catalogue,
weighs 1/2 oz and consumes 1.12 watts. Part No: MOD-1
Another option for new kit is somewhere like a Car accessory Supplier,
J C Whitney. On a another 'tack', they also do neat Air Con
Units.......... forget it!!
Even more fun is a Car Scrap yard (wreckers Yard) where a lot of more
recent cars have 'zoned' Courtesy down lighters which could be adapted.
Kind Regards
Gerry
