Something cool you can do with them if you have a westy (or maybe any
Vanagon, I haven't tried this in my Carat). I put two in the back over
the bunk shining straight down. These are ideal for reading when
camping, expecially if you tend to read with your head near the back
bunk. When you open the back hatch at night, the whole rear can be
illuminated by touching those two lenses--light everywhere. Now pop the
engine hatch and voila... enough light to do just about anything on top
of the engine. No hands, no props.

I also put one on the inside pantry door so that it shines into both
the upper and lower shelves. The light spreads enough to see
everywhere, and the light scans the interior of the pantry as the door
angle is changed.

I'm thinking about a few more for upstairs and downstairs.

I've never seen such a useful light. You can also unstick them and move
them.
