Default brighten the cabin

I find the cabin darker than I would prefer. I do have the carbon roof so maybe that's playing a role. Its dark enough that I decided not to tint this car (first car I haven't tinted). Has anyone found a way to brighten the interior? From what I've read, the leds used in the cabin aren't standard sizes.

Is the trunk light standard size? pretty dark in there too..

You can swap out the visor bulbs with brighter LEDs like I did. The ones I used light up the entire cabin pretty well...

I've also found this 'Low-Tech' solution works quite well. I've found using a little duct tape helps in avoiding fires.

Just thought I'd share.

Honestly thought when I first got the car that the trunk bulb was out.. lol.. I guess the trunk bulb isn't user replaceable either..

doesn't look like there's any easy way to brighten things, may try the visor bulb swap though..
