Underhood Light

[04DeadShort]

I do most of the work on ours cars at night in my garage. I've always had a problem with getting good light under the hood. Then I found this.

Just wondering if anyone has a light setup like this and what they think about it.
This would really help doing engine work on the car.

I have both setups like you guys posted. I just like that under-hood setup and was wondering who makes a better light. I was watching a car show and they was using one while working on that car. It seem to put out a lot of light.

Same. Reel lite with a plug on it for power tools. Have a hand held little LED light I can jam in spots if I need the power of the sun to see in a tiny corner.

Those FREAKING THINGS ROCK!!

That is the best lead light I have ever seen in my life!

One of our techs where I used to work had one, he was older than me so light was pretty important to him too.

I have not seen a better under hood light solution than that type.

If you are pulling a dash or interior out also... they are the best I have seen.:rockon::beer:

Sometimes I wish I could. I work night shift and its just easier on my body to stay on that schedule even on my off days.

That is what I figured. The first thing I noticed on the car show was how much light it put out. It really got my attention.

They have a bunch of them over on Amazon. Just gotta decide which one I want.

What the hell is up with all the sun posts?
Is that supposed to be comedy?:smmon:
Most people work on their cars in a garage not out in the front yard on blocks.

GEEZ! When you get older you will know the value of a really good light.
Do you guys even do your own work?:rollseyes

^^^^ Now that is funny. I would rather work on my cars at night and enjoy them during that day.
