Completely dark. No problem if you need to check something in your Barndoor engine, even with 6v lamps Wink

Have you considered simply starting with a nicer bus? I don't know what your skills are, but the race is easier if you can see the finish line. If you are not a runner, don't start off doing a marathon.
