Adding a light under the bonnet...would come in handy

[BenF]

you could make your fog lights backwards facing...

[JHT1888]

I could have them facing you and blind you

Don't be silly, they aren't fog lamps, they are additional driving lamps

[JHT1888]

Exactly,

don't be smart though, it doesn't become you

sorry, just stating a fact, that you told me.

IMO, it would be silly to put driving lamps inside the engine bay





a fog lamp would give a better wide spread of light

It was snowball head that suggested it not me

[BenF]

oooh get you!

God, let's not go there again, that last thread was carnage.

I seem to recall my Dads Rover SD1 in the 80's had an under bonnet light - says it all really

Now don't be silly Ben, he would claim that he was blinded by them and that it was your fault he crashed because you suggested it.

Years ago, I used to have a light fitted under the bonnet of my Escort Mk1 rally car.
A slim reversing light was fixed to the bracing of the bonnet, (and if I remember correctly) which was wired to a panel inside the car, with a switch and a warning light (didn't want to light the engine bay whilst driving along - could have been mistaken for a McDonlads racer with their neons!.............only years before they ever existed!).

Get a miner's hat .... or one of those strap on LED lights that fishing tackle shops sell.

[Dogsbody]

Why not just buy a pack of those battery powered "under unit" lights they advertise on TV?
Clicky

£3.50 for 3 The ones I bought for a job in the local Church had a magnetic backing as one of the fixing options.
You could keep one in the glove box, if required anywhere really just turn on and place on the metalwork.
Bonnet, wheel arch doing a flat tyre etc.
