Subject:Just some annoyances..

Today I'm asking about 3 annoyances to make wife happy:

1)  What options are out there to add night lighting to the gear box area, either from above or below?  At night it is easy to switch into 2nd gear when you want to be in "D" simply because it is dark and you overshot the position:

2)  Lights were acceptably dim in those 1989 days.  Can this light be replaced with something brighter without blowing a fuse?  The light above the driver's door is also quite dim.

3)  This one is just cosmetic.  Does anyone have a source for this headrest in black/gray?  Secondly, any idea how to remove these?  Mine don't seem to budge.

Thanks!
