    Assembly was probably only 15 min.
    My only mistake was ordering the small heat shrink.
    I wrapped the LEDs hen went to put on the heat shrink. It didn't fit and it took me 3 days to get the right size.. I think 3/4 would have been perfect but I went inch. In those three days the waterproofing cracked and peeled out some on a few places. My next one should go very fast

    I got some free led strips about 2.5 feet long I'm trying to figure out where to put... they don't have adhesive backing though so I'm unsure how to install them. Was thinking about maybe using them as underglow? Hahaha

    When my neon undertruck lights go out, I'm going to use strip lights. Mount them with these and some strong zip ties:

    DAMN! Mine are still going strong.

    What would I mount those brackets into? Looks like I'd need to drill into plastic or something?
    The strips actually are not flat.. When I get home I'll send you a picture. But I can't complain, they were free. I was thinking 2 under the truck and one behind my grill to light up the front orange... thoughts?

    Ok I just finished reading all 33 pages. I think I want to connect 8-10 5 mm LEDs and 4 small light bars to wago clips. I want to run the wago clips to a rocker. I want to then run the rocker to the havoc wires.

    1) will the power draw be low enough to support this? Or do I need to run power from the battery (I prefer to have dimming ability)
    2) if it is possible, do I run a single in line fuse between the hvac and rocker?

    Thanks for the help
