OK I searched under lights and overhead and LED and all combinations I think. Can someone tell me what the purpose of the violet coleored LED in the overhead by the mirror is for. Its on at night only when the key is on

 

It lights your window buttons...

Some call it the "Light from above."

 

X2. If you notice, the window switches are not illuminated. The light is also good for showing whats in the little pocket under the window switches

 

thanks, I looked all through the owners book and could find nothing. that was my guess, but i knew someone would know for sure.

 

I was told its a mood light but mine is a blue LED well NOW IT IS! It matches my new blue LED dash

 

Damn nice instrument cluster color that's awesome

 

Well thanks, getting ready to start working on the rest of the HHR now, the doors rest of the dash etc....

 

I don't like mine-- blocked it with a small rubber plug long ago.

 

I've wondered how hard it will be to replace when it burns out (yes, I am the type of person that would want it fixed...it would bother me )

 

It's a mini spot light for the console area. I dont typically like lots of night lights but this one is OK (for now). May plug it off later. Stuff a pencil eraser up in there?
