LED light upgrade
The days are getting shorter, which has made me increasingly aware of just how pathetic the little yellow dome light is in my Micra, so today I decided to do something about it.
The direct LED replacement for this bulb is a T10 LED; I picked up a two pack from Canadian Tire for $19.99. The difference is quite significant in the dark.

The license plate light uses the same bulb, so I put the extra one there.

The parking and side marker lights use the same bulb, I may upgrade those to LED as they burn out.

In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.
