I had my back pad recovered so I replaced my broken original interior light. At least, I thought I replaced it. Could not find NOS so I got the VW Empi light. Not even close to being original! I had to "jury-rig" the light to make it stay in the pad. I will not be using it because I am afraid to touch it because it may come out of the pad! I don't drive at night anyway! Looks good from a distance! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I never cared for that light NOS or not. It just sees to blind me and illuminate nothing. I installed some LED strip lights under the dash to light up the foot well. That light is just used to fill the hole in the back pad.
