Default Can't see ignition in the dark!

Is there an easy fix so I can see my ignition key hole? My '06 H3 does not have an ignition ring light. Is there a glow in the dark ring I can adhere or is there wiring that will have to be done? Thanks!

WOW!!!!! Might I suggest some glasses. Is it really that hard to find the keyhole. While your at it why dont you get some neon lights installed on your steering wheel, and pedals

Default cant leave key in ign

my h3 is the first veh in years that i dont just leave a key in forever. it is a little fussy with all the whiz bang protection.

but it is NOT easy to find the hole without looking.
i like to just plug and go and it would be nice to have a funnel effect to guide the "blind key"

sometime i hit it without looking,but i usually fumble,,or peek,,its an xtra motion that shouldnt be needed.

i guess ill invent a stick on funnel and get rich!!!

hey,,this time tomorrow i may be sleeping in my new h3 adv.

its loaded,even a camera,,i think ill bacvk up all the way!!oh well,,excited like a kid on dec 24

Default Thanks!

Mr. Fancy Pants and DrTom, Thank you for your serious answers/help. When I shut my door the interior light goes off and so being in a hurry, you're right, it's an extra effort to fumble around and try to hit the keyhole. Very frustrating. I really appreciate your help. I thought more people on here would be able to help. Thanks again!
