I've got a backpacking sized LED lantern that the kids use in the pop-top.  It works great and is portable for use around the campsite.

I bought one of those at "the future shop", was only around Can$16. I
mounted it (using the good quality 3m double sided tape, the stuff that
has red peel away backing and thickish clear adhesive strip - quite
strong) on the transverse metal reinforcement bar at rear edge of op
top cutout, over the right hand side seat. I ran a wire inside that
metal bit and connected to the power feed to over sink light. I spliced
in a switch at the light.

It does provide a good reading light in that area, and is rotate-able
to a degree, but stiff to move. I think its worth the effort. I will be
buying more.

I personally have not tried these LED units but I'm planning to get
at least one and see what the output is. They are pretty cheap, easy
enough to mount, look good and the tube rotates so you can direct the
light.
