>From: Brian Kraut <eng...@earthlink.net> I had a halogen aimable light hanging from the top of my turtledeck that was a big help. If I did it again I would still have the instrument lights, but instead of the halogen from the turtledeck I would use one of these http://www.susquehanna.com/susq/hella/mplmp.htm
Good looking lights. I used something like that for a while in my Bonanza, as the right side of the panel always seemed a little dark. One issue I had with a setup, where the "head" had all the mass, was the strength of the mechanism holding it out that far from it's base. Seemed to me, the constant vibration of the airplane quickly diminished it's ability to hold the head in the same place so I was always repositioning it. The above light was obviously designed for auto use where the vibration level is much less pronounced. Your post light, or the small swivel light, don't have to deal with this issue. One more thing about these little swivel lights, they remain adjustable after install and don't affect your night vision.
