Default saddlebag interior light options

im looking for some ideas about saddlebag interior lights. i'd like something that is more slimline and not bulky. i dont mind wiring them or being battery powered. some pics of them and how they are mounted would be nice as well

This is what I use. Works pretty well and is removable.

These are the ones I have on my Goldwing. They are really bright and are built well. They are metal and have a circuit board inside, along with the AAA batteries.

They have double stick tape to hold them in place and they also have a switch that allows you to turn them on or off.

They work with a type of a lean sensor. When the lid is opened the light goes on. When the lid is closed, the light goes off.

The only problem I had with mine is with the trunk light, being upside down, the battery seemed to not stay in place like it should so I added some padding on the inside cover to press on the battery to hold it in place.

They work great and have LED bulbs.

I haven't got a set for the Harley yet.

I installed a set of led lights that are sold for lighting up truck beds. There's 8 lights total. I put 4 inside the tour pack and two under each speaker pod for the tour pack so they shine directly into the saddle bag without taking up any space. It did require hardwiring them but I already have power in the tour pack so that was easy. They are waterproof too and cost about $35 for the set.
