I always thought about some different type of light switch for the back pad that a person could mount along with the other switches, that you could just turn a knob, and come on, instead of squirreling your arm around to flip that switch seems like would be a improvemnt.

The approach I took was to mount some led strip lights under the seats and actually behind the back pad at the base of the window. Intied thes into the existing dome light wiring.

They are bright enough to put out useful light enen though it is not direct. Use a 20" strip for the back pad and 2 12" strips mounted on the top of the hump under the seat facing upward. Works very well. Pretty simple, out of site, works very well, and very easy to remove in needed. I can post pictures if anyone is intrested.
