    Awesome mod. After reading your diy, I ordered the same led from Amazon. It’s been ~ 3weeks and I’m still waiting for them :-( But at least my mercury switches arrived :)

    From experience, bored can be dangerous LOL.

    Great idea!

    Ended up swapping out the tilt switch for this type of switch.

    Nice job. And good idea. The console in the 4R is deep, so the light would be especially handy in the dark.

    Good job. Later this year I'm putting an always hot 12 V outlet in my console. Now I'm also lighting the console. Thanks for a great mod.
