| LED reading light?
Red's got a swan-neck light removed from a desk clamp light that cost about a fiver on ebay. Just attached it to the ceiling with a tool clip to stop it bouncing down on its own. Works really well in the disco ... not sure how well it will do on a Defender with its more upright windscreen.
If you can get an LED lamp close enough behind the passenger sun visor, it'll be sheilded from the windscreen. Modify the pushlamps you had in Pinky before? | |

| You've got a Morrisons nearby, yeah? Check the home section. They have some lap tables in the home/seasonal section. Table with pen and cup holders, and fixed flex-neck LED reading light, on a beanbag style base for comfort... Were £7 in the Guiseley store last week. | |

| We have a lamp like yours Andy attached to the dash of our Rangey! In the Disco, I tend to use a head torch angled down.

| I've just seen what DD has got for me to try and map read. I think I'm with James on the head torch which I found in the door pocket when cleaning Lenny out - No Kieran thats not a hint for you to borrow it ! | |
