Glove box light options

[PbFut]

I purchased a glove box light kit from Brothers a couple years ago. Its been sitting in a corner since I received it. I just can't bring myself to install it. The quality just does not look like something that would have been acceptable in the 1970's. Also, the kit places the bulb attached to the switch in the corner of the box that is reduced in area for AC duct work. This would shadow the open area of the box making the light nearly worthless in my opinion. The glove box liner has what appears to be a hole for a lamp socket up by the door catch. I am guessing the screw holes for the box door catch would be the attachment point. I've never seen a lamp that would go in this area. How was an original glove box lamp set up?
Any photos or ideas on a better approach than what the aftermarket is offering?
