Lighting Apparatus and Method for Application of Window Tint to Automobiles

A lighting apparatus formed from a translucent cylindrical foam tube such as a white “pool noodle” that is soft, flexible, and resilient and has a flexible electrically powered internal illumination source such as an LED strip bearing multiple LEDs extending through its interior. The lighting apparatus is typically provided with electricity via a plug adapted for insertion into an automobile cigarette lighter socket, and is readily positioned along the interior edges of an automobile window for illumination of areas where window tint/film is being applied to the window. The lighting apparatus can also have a self-contained power source and be connected in series for added versatility and utility.
