Default crappy interior lighting

How can I make my lights brighter in the interior. I am talking about the lights that are behind plastic component such as the lights aroiund the stereo and behind the gauges, they seem really dim to me. Also i have a problem with my dome light, it doesent work when I open the door (lever in the middle) but it works when I turn it on all the way. Even then it is shakey and flickery. How can I fix this? I have a helms manual.

Sounds like a bad connection between the plug and the switch. i've never removed one, but im sure it cant be that difficult. as for the lighting problem, you could probibly try and find a little bit higher wattage bulb or even go with a super white bulb. you just need to consider the heat that is going to be produced from the bulb and the chances of you melting the plastic cover.

All you should be doing is unbolting the ground and replacing it somewhere else. Look in the Helms and find the area your looking for and they should talk about eletrical or wiring ****. Hope that helps.
