The map light in my '87 GT hangs down a little bit, not to mention it's unattractive and old looking. I looked through www.50resto.com for some kind of replacement or delete kit, but didn't find anything. Anyone know what kind of options exist as far as replacement goes? A newer style maplight would be all right, I guess.

YOU CAN DELETE IT BY TAKING IT OFF AND THEN GETTING A NEW HEAD LINER THAT COVERS THE HOLE

That could be a little pricey. I just saw something this one guy did where he replaced it with a '94-'98 Cobra dome light with dual map lights. That could be an option.

sounds like the clip on it could just be bent out of shape...might try fiddling with that.

I say try to flip it around and use it as a shift light sounds like it would be cool...

or just use some adhesive velcro to keep it up...ghetto, but it would work...

...and paint it
