I just got through adding some Lights under both consoles on the P2. Switched them on the ACC switch that is on the round touch pad above pump in and pump out. I also put a small set of LEDs in the Glove box and hooked them on a switch like BCB uses on the Storage compartments. Due to the design of the Glove box lid I added an aluminum rod that had been dipped in Black Carbon Fiber pattern to work the switch as the lid is closed. Works like a charm and allows you to actually look for something versus using the Braille method.Dan

I went with white lights because I wanted function not effect. It is amazing how much better for actually seeing white lights are than say red. I also like the fact that even though the lights are nice and bright that because of placement they in no way blind you even in total darkness.Dan

There was a small piece of PVC pipe fiberglassed into the bottom of deck in front of rod lockers. Ran the wire through it over to the Starboard Rod locker and back through that locker to passenger console. Brought the wire out at the access hole under passenger console to hook up LEDs mounted underneath.Dan
