🔦 Dorman 68203 Under Hood Light: Illuminate Your Vehicle's Engine Compartment with Select Models Review

Crazy design. First the lightbulb is soldered. Directly in front of the screw for attachment to the hood. Absolutely NEVER can you rearrange the bulb a little bit without breaking the soldering. The second brass connector that was soldered to the bulb fell off. They must have the best design and quality control.

There is nothing good about this product other than the right case. And who is soldering the lightbulb? It also doesn't use the correct switch to get the light to work. That way it stays on when it shouldn't be consuming battery. Buy the OEM version and save time. I had to re-solder the bulb and fiddle with the switch to get it to work properly. 3 hours of work for 15 minutes of work.

I bought this because I knew it would have an incandescent bulb, so I also bought the correct LED replacement bulb. Surprisingly, Dorman not only SOLDERED the bulb, but also used a different bulb than the one the fixture was designed for! I had to desolder the bulb to install my LED bulb. With the advantages of LEDs, lower power consumption, brighter light and cooler temperatures, one would think…

Works like an OEM. It's just cheaper. When you expect MOPAR quality but want to pay Chinese prices. Spring. WYSIWYG, can't complain, the part came assembled, had to undo the clamshell latch to tighten the hood bolt. (A genius in the previous review couldn't figure it out) The connection was factory made but there was a plastic plug in the hole. I cleaned it, there is a little dielectric grease in the fitting. plug and play He actually soldered a lightbulb and it gets very hot. Common sense…

The only original was the case and clear plastic cover> Not only did it not work but someone else removed the missing internal parts. The bulb wasn't the right one and it was soldered to both end pins which were broken. The metal ball connector was missing and was replaced with a transistor. I temporarily connected the soldered ends of the lamp and it worked but stayed on permanently due to the lack of a ball terminal which was replaced with a transistor. The only thing I needed was a clear…
