Engine compartment light

Hi, I just noticed that the engine compartment on the 8 does not have a light. Now I know that this might seem trivial to some but they way I see it (or can't) when the owners manual say to check the oil every other fill up... the dip stick is a bit$# to get back in with no light... Any suggestions or fixes??
Thanks

For a few bucks you can rig your own and even have it work off a pressure type switch. Next time your in an auto parts store check out the isle with the lights and wires.
