Been meaning to do this years ago anyway finally fitted led light strip to the boot to replace the rubbish bulb, pretty happy with the results, fitting some under the rear seats next to illuminate the rear, will post more pics when I'm done. Also got some Citroen washer jets and can't believe how much better they are than standard!

Wouldn't see that for all the junk I have in there.

I quite like that, I am forever having to turn on the torch on my phone to see the last remnants of shopping in the boot, so this would be perfect for me :)

Oh and yes, I *should* take my shopping bags with me, but I forget till about 10 mins away from home!

Might look at doing this myself at some point :)

Keep the empty bags in the car.

Keep the empty bags in the car.

They are not empty once stuff is in them, then I forget to put them back :)

Or, I take one of the other cars and forget to transfer the bags across... ;)

its so easy, led light strip with adhesive backing so you just stick it to the roof of the boot, red wire and black wire connect up to the two wires for the normal boot light so two quick spade connections and hey presto.
