NOTICE: I ended up with two of this same part, so I'm selling the extra one here: Front interior light (map lamp)
(Also called a map lamp, courtesy light, or overhead console)
I just finished adding a front interior light to my Venue SE. The actual installation wasn't too difficult, but figuring out the correct part and actually obtaining it was somewhat tricky.
Here's my story from start to finish, and hopefully it saves other people some time.
How many different configurations are there?
It's no secret that the Venue is an inexpensive car, so Hyundai obviously looked for ways to cut costs. So it's unsurprising that my Venue SE did not have an interior light in the front between the sun visors. I had only the center-mounted light, and a recessed blank spot up front like this:
But by reading through forums and reviews I eventually learned that the Venue has (at least) 4 different map lamp configurations, depending on the options.
