LED Lamp in Dome Light to Illuminate the Stick Shift?

I read somewhere that its called a "map light", in case for some reason your passenger wanted to look at a old school map when youve lost your way. This helps you not turn on the ultra bright interior lights which can be annoying when driving. Anyone else hear it being called that?

Oh my, is this what this whole topic is about? I completely misunderstood what was meant by this "gear knob light". It's just to read a book or a map. If wolf is correct then yeah I indeed have this in my A3 but it's not like anything original or exciting. All European cars have this, even the shittiest Renault
