sorry-I'm not the best at uploading pics.(I'm sure someone will get rid of the extra pic for me. WE had problems with the fuse to the cargo light ,so I installed the tractor light lens(NAPA) in the cargo bay. It is wired straight to the battery with a rocker switch on the dash. we used the extra slot on the dash of my son's 92.

I also had/have problems with my dome light, so I mounted lights to the outer screws for the rear headliner trim. They are mounted so that I can angle them either into the rear cargo area or outside of the rear of the vehicle or straight out the back window.

I bought some norhtern tool ones for like 11 bucks they are 55 watts and light up the WHOLE inside of the XJ I mounted them on each side of the headliner trim thing as stated above but mine only shoot down towards the cargo area... which is a mobile workshop I'll have to snap a few pics of the finished product the switch is placed in the rear cargo areaso I don't have to keep going bak and forth to turn it on
