As much as I have resisted the urge to add any lights or chrome to my bike, I am getting tired of digging through the dark trunk and saddlebags at night.
So I think I may have to bite the bullet and buy/build some lights for the bags and trunk. I know many of you have already gone down this road and would like to hear what works and what doesn't.
I seem to recall a Radio Shack portable lights some folks used. Anyone remeber what it was or how well it works?
I also see now Lewis has a portable battery powered LED light ($14.95) on his site that looks interesting.

Has anyone made their own LED lighting setup? If so, did you use a mercury switch or did you tie into the existing trunk/saddlebag circuit? It seems like I should be able to buy some super bright LED's and a couple mercury switches at Radio Shack for under $10. Anyone gone this route?
Whatever I do, I don't want it to take up much (if any) space in the trunk, as I need all I have when I travel two-up.
Any ideas/comments appreciated.
