Installed Some Under Bed Rail Lights
I bought two 4' flexible LED rope lights a while back on ebay. I really kinda forgot that i had them. Today i decided to install them.
I bought two 4' lengths of 3/4" aluminum angle and some double sided tape.
First i started by double sided taping the light rope to the angle stock. I measured and centered them on the and drilled some holes. I then tapped them for some allen headed button head stainless bolts and then simply wired them to my dome light. What ya think?

Would there be a way to get power off of the trailer pigtail? Seems it might be more convenient that way. (I might be wrong, and I'd have to find a switch so it's not on every time I have the lights on)
It looks SICK though and after digging around under the tonneau cover in the dark... it seems like it would be an awesome mod.

Looks great. I too just dug out some LEDs that I forgot about. Now I'm deciding where to put them. I have four of them and was thinking about putting them underneath the vehicle so when I opened the door, they would light up the ground underneath the truck. Any other ideas? I bought the tiny led modules from oznium.com
