I am using two little rotatable things from Van's for white lights. Their
cheap and bright. rotate in in about any hemisperical direction.

I have 5 wide angle LED's from Radio shack mounted in the roll bar. there
is one resistor for each one and a dimmer to control all of them. These
are for my RED.....

I took a 'moonlight' that I got at Orielly's Automotive, placed a small
piece of red plastic inside the dome of the light and mounted it with
velcro. Not as fancy as most, but it emits a soft glow that is not
irritating, is movable, can be also be used as a white light, can be handed
to the backseat passanger to use (RV4), and cost about 3.50 with tax and 2
AA batteries.
