tailgate lighting idea
On my recent trip from Amsterdam to Capetown I had fitted two halogen 12V lights to the upper half of the car's tailgate. Nothing fancy, just the simple bolt-on jobbies from the DIY store around the corner. The only thing I did, was replace the 10W lights by 5W items to save on the electricity consumption.
The lights didn't fail a single time in half a year / 40 000 kms, give a very pleasant bright light and can be wired straight to the car's batteries.
Because I haven't seen it on anyone else's car, I thought I'd share it with you.
