    The trick with this is that it needs to be exposed to a source of light during the day so it can be fluorescent when it's dark... What.. if you park your car in an indoor parking all day long....?

    Micra has a dome light anyways... i don't know what i was thinking when i bought this...

    I was going to buy one purely because the Micra has the ugliest ignition switch of any vehicle I've ever owned. My K-car ignition was a work of art compared to the Micra.

    The interior light isn't on long enough at all, and it's hard to see the ignition pending if your're parked far from a light source, so this would be a great idea. Do you find it's bright enough? Otherwise, I like it.

    not as bright as i wish it is. You can see in my second picture.. in the dark, you will know where the "circle" is.. but you won't see where the keyhole is.

    also, i bought it from ebay where they charged me 7$ USD a piece, then i found out it was being sold for 2$ on aliexpress.. it took 2 months to arrive.. so.. there's a "pissed factor" why i find this is a stupid purchase.
