Mounted controls question?!

[VersaJosh]

could someone explain to me why they are not lit when everything else is?! I always have to turn my reading lights on to use cruise at night. also, is there a way to get lights in there or is it a lost cause?

I doubt lights can be added, is it really that hard to memorize 4 buttons???

[VersaJosh]

not hard, just annoying. I don't use cruise that often anyway, just curious. i use the radio controls alot, and have that memorized...guess im just being too picky

lol, yea I had a hard time at first too, but got used to it fast.

BTW welcome to the forum!!

hey no problem bud. Ever since you posted this, I have been thinking of a way to get some light on those buttons, but have not been a succesful thinker so far.

My '04 Accord had a single small yellow LED next ot the front maplights that light up the area around the controls and cupholders. I saw these sold for motorcycle and bicycle handlebars ot light up those controls. I wonder if something similar might be able to mount to light up the steering wheel and the interior in front of the driver. Maybe a small yellow LED that you could clip to the visor. I'd buy one.

I have been thinking of something in that sense but have not been able to get a good design idea.

Here's the solution:

Seems a little bit over-engineered, but one has to consider the additional benefits.
