Default larger dome light swap for del sol's

ive been looking around at diff dome lights to replace my stock del sol one. it is kinda small and mine doesnt put out enough light for me (too dim) so i plan on swapping in a new one from maybe a diff model. my question is if somebody can post pics of an eg,ek and maybe an dc's interior dome light? im thinking that i may have to just cut/re cramp the wires together, hopfully thats all the hard work. if this has been done before please provide me with a link. post up those pics! i need DOME !

My brother has a DC and it doesn't put out any more light then my EG. Your best bet would be to use a brighter bulb and if you can find a clear plastic lens then that would really help.

This is what I did in my Sol, I had a spare laying around from my old lebarron, since it was a convertable it had the lights in the mirror for the doom and what not. I ran the wires from the switch part of the stock dome light. I did it that way so if I switched the lights on or off with the dome light it would do the same to the ones in my mirror. I love it personally it gives out SOOOO much more light and takes an hr to do.

Pm me if you have any questions, In fact I'll make a write up on it in an hr or so instead, now that I know at least one other person would like this too.
