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)

The old light in my car is more frosted than the replacement part. It gives the light a much softer quality when it's on. Perhaps some coarse-grit sandpaper could help soften the light?
