Default Interior lighting

I have an 07 GT Premium and I love it. However, there is one thing that is bugging me. The only interior lighting I have are two map lights up front that really don't do much. It's crazy dark in the back seat. Is there anything I can do about this?

check out oznium.com, they have great prices on LEDs and a huge selection. I just put in some on my supercrew and it really works well. I plan on putting some in my stang soon. they are fairly simple to install and give off a lot of light. I used the 4.7 flex light strips (2) one on each side. hope this helps

I added LED foot-well lighting and it was very easy. I wired them to come on with the interior lights when I hit the 'unlock' on the remote and then fade off just like the interior lights. They also come on with the headlights switch and can be dimmed with the dash lights. I also installed a separate under dash on/off switch and a separate dimmer (I used a potentiometer). I used blue LED's and use blue "my-color' dash lights.

I got two of the 6-LED units from Advance Auto for about $10.00 each.They attach directly to the mounting tabs that the factory LED's do on 2007+ Mustangs (located under the dash in the center of each foot-well). I wired them into the the line in the console that the illuminates auto shifter (mine is manual but the wire is still there). I get tons of compliments and it really works great for driving at night. I can keep just a dim blue glow or have them as bright as I want with the separate dimmer.
