Now I have plenty of light in my trunk and part of the area where I will be standing.

What cargo/trunk liner do you have?

More led mods have to be done in '14. They putted light on the side this time so if you put any bag next to it you get no light in hatch. Also this time no light in glove box. Wonder if they just missed it or it something luxury that cost a lot of money :confused:

This is extremely annoying on my 2014 Rogue. I am basically blind back there. I'm debating between replacing the -far too dull- hatch light or maybe throwing something like this back there: http://www.amazon.com/Fulcrum-20032-301 ... auto+light

Any thoughts?

Maybe it's just me but I don't trust aftermarket motion sensors in cars. It doesn't add any security in my opinion and may not work correctly in this case. I would run an extra wire from existing light to additional one. Replace current light with led and then you'll be able to add more light without adding extra current to the line.
