So I have a 91 Hicas Hatch that had some map lights in front of the sunroof. I'd love to have those lights in my Base model S13 coupe. Before I go hacking up my headliner, is there wiring there for the map light? Someone told me that the chassis wiring was all the same and there should be a plug under there. But if there was a plug, why didn't they just put map lights up there?

Just curious. I know I could run a couple wires from the dome light no problem. I just was curious about the whole in cabin wiring situation. Did upgraded S13 models ever have map lights?

Do you think its a bad idea to put map lights in there? If the car is "rare" because it doesn't have map lights or something, I'd rather not ruin a headliner that might not be easily replaced. I'd rather just pick up another one in that case.

Anyways... Thanks!
