I find the rear of the Westfalia lacking in lighting--not only for
seeing what you are doing when parked--but it's a hit or miss thing just
entering the rear of the Van, when dark.

I have some 2" round indirect lights in the cockpit of my boat, and in
the stairs going below, so you can see where in the heck you are
going----

They aren't really bright, but are more like mood lighting that
reflects, off the deck so you can see where in the heck you are
going----

I'm thinking, that 4 of them ( two below the rear seat, and two on the
bottom of the cabinet's, ) would allow you to see whereinthe heck you
are ging when it's dark, without stumbling around to get to the light
switch for the overhead lighting----

These lights are indirect, and would be  simple to connect, to the front
door switch--

I'm stopping at Boat Us tomorrow, and check the availability out--

It would be neat to have these lights glowing off the floor, if nothing
else just to see where in the heck you on your way to in the dark---

I'll report about the possbilities tomorrow----
