    Gotcha. Yeah, I installed them on the body panel directly so the lights face down, not on the pinch weld directly. There are plug and play kits around for tapping into the dome circuit, so have a look around for those so you don't have to go splicing into wiring.

    Matt,

    Can you tell me the difference between your bed kit and camper shell kit?

    I got an answer from your site: the wire harness much longer for the camper kit and adds a quick quick disconnect plugs.

    awesome, thanks

    I did that over three years ago and it's been great. It also protects the led strips. I'd use a few drops of dish soap with some water to help slide the shrink tubing over the tubing/led strips.

    A bunch of Meso Custom stuff.
    Matt couple questions: can the bed light strip go over the section of the softopper that snaps onto the cab side bed wall?
    Do you have a softopper light kit in red?
    Thank you.

    Need to get more heavy duty tape to reattach my lights. (Had to remove part to fix something) Have had these on for at least 5+ years with no problems so would love the exact same or similar tape....can you point me in the right direction? (I don’t want to end up with cheap tape off Amazon)

    thanks!

    So I had an idea, unsure if it's been asked but can you do dual color kinda like the meso come lights? Where there are red and white leds and with a switch to between one or the other? Or would someone have to do two kits?

    I only make single color LED sets. Multiple sets can fit under the rails and I can provide a discount if you were interested in purchasing something like this.
