VW seemed to think that the little light they put in the passenger side of the hatch would provide adequate illumination for the bottomless expanse that is my hatch. With dark grey carpet and a toolbox secured to that side with some bungee cords, I begged to differ.

Luckily I’d recently upgraded my workstation at home to an Antec P180 and no longer had a windowed case in use. Because of this the two 12″ cold-cathodes I had needed a new home, which they found underneath the parcel shelf.
