Abstract: The present invention provides a light located in a carved out portion of the front seat back in an automobile. In an exemplary embodiment, the light includes a light-emitting diode (LED) lamp attached to the top ledge that the carved out portion creates. This LED lamp is small in nature, and therefore hidden from the view of passengers and out of the way as to not interfere with the front seat back. Additional exemplary embodiments can include incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps, and the like. Advantageously, the light in the carved out portion can be utilized as a courtesy lamp, a reading lamp, a map pocket lamp, and the like. Additionally, the present invention is designed to allow illumination while the automobile is operating without interference with the driver or neighboring automobiles by positioning the light such that the light angles downward while on.
