I read this thread and thought it was a great idea, but really had no plans to make the addition.

Well, I was at Lowes (LOVE THE LOWES!) and saw the "Sylvania Dimmable White DOT-it Self-Adhesive Bright White LED Light" for $6.95, so I decided to give it a whirl.

The light came with double sided stick tape and a velcro circle. I decided to do some "belt and suspenders" action and use the CD and the velcro. I double side stuck the light to the cd, then I put the velcro (the hook side) on the back of the cd. I then proceeded to stick the CD into that back plastic piece as instructed. I find that the velcro keeps it from sliding and the cd keeps it from falling.

Teamwork I tell ya! Thanks for the idea, the light is a very welcome addition

So Dub, how bout a bit more info on this light. Is it battery op or hard wired? Is it just mounted with double side tape?
Looks good and fits well!
I am thinking 2...one on each side mounted lengthways!

It has "AA" batts...added a couple of layers of dubbl stick to the center area of the included dubbl stick velcro,(circular) to accomidate the radius of the molded plastic piece.

Those two little nubs are the contact points that turn it on & off, it also swivels in it's base, fore & aft.

Best seven dollar mod ever!...

Dang, picked up one of these cool lights today at WallyWorld but the touch connectors don't work so I can't turn it on......we can get it to come on by moving the batteries a bit so I think the LEDs are working....back we go tomorrow..
Dub, there's no magic to this thing is there? You're supposed to be able to just touch where those 2 thingys are and it should come on, right? Or maybe you just have some magic touch goin' on......
