does anyone know where i can get black vinyl lighted sunvisors? My fox had them originally but they were all beat up along with the headliner, so i relpaced them with black cloth sunvisors w/o lights and a black cloth headliner. Little did i know, because my fox has T-tops, cloth sunvisors/headliner was a big no no. Theyre all super faded now.

apparently im not crazy, since AM sells the sunvisor rods for lighted sunvisors, I've just never seen them on any other fox, other than my own.

I installed LED's in place of the stock bulbs in the rearview mirror and lower courtesy lights under the dash in my vert.
They're really bright, make a huge difference and look really cool at night with the door open.

Pardon this terrible pic. You can't see the rearview mirror, (note a glow on the center a/c vents) but can see how bright the courtesy lights are even though the sun is shining into the window of my garage. LOL
I'll try to take a better pic tonight if interested.

I do agree that it would be cool to somehow slip in a small LED under the window/door lock switches to highlight them. I da know? I also thought about installing a low power LED under each seat to highlight the floor while driving. "anything to lighten up an otherwise dark interior"
however my most favorite way is to drop the top.

old thread but as i looked back, i noticed your steering wheel. Is that thing custom made? It looks cool! Seems like an aftermarket steering wheel but the cruise control switches are throwing me off.

It is/was a leather wheel made by "Personal" in Italy. They were used in some Saleen SSC's in '89. I had it as a back up wheel when I owned my SSC. When I sold my SSC I decided to install it in my vert.
However, I recently sold that wheel and reinstalled the stocker. LOL
