The "light" has never affected me...come to think of it i never notice it. Why all this talk about it?

 

I have gone through the manual for the HHR and I can not find any reference to this little light blue LED that is in the headliner in front of the mirror more or less shining on the stick shift. Also have not really noticed a pattern to when it is on or not. Can anyone tell me WTF it is/is for?

 

Mood Lighting! NO, IT IS A SOFT LITE FOR SHIFTER AREA AND WINDOW SWITCHES. THATS IT.

 

Cute. Thanks for an answer and a chuckle!

 

Wow Jim! I expected that from the Captain, not you! I have to admit, that light is one of the most useless factory items ever built in to a vehicle.

 

I figure that's where the antenna was originally going to go, but they screwed up the design, and couldn't figure out what to put there to plug the hole so they stuck an LED in there. Problem solved!

 

Like with the Fiero map pocket?

 

Don't pick on the Fiero. Those things kept guys like me busy for a long time. Not only did they seem to catch fire easily, that mag block made putting it out as much fun as a 4th of July display!

 

That Little lite in the headliner looks like they put the car together and said OH S*#@%! We fergot to lite up the window switches and so they just stuck that little lite up there to lite up the window switches!

 

i like the lite. but those dam window switches are going to cause some accidents, i wish they were on the doors .
