Rock lights - what's your opinion?

The best kind

 

Ampper rock/underglow lights - same ones @breader3 used I believe (see here for the write-up I did on the installation and more photos / note: I'm an electrical noob)

 

Dang. These lights look neat. I can see them being functional if you put them in the wheel wells to light the area when you are working or under the truck for the same reason..

 

Dis you guys get rid of the color options?

 

For rock lights, what are the alternatives for routing of wires from the inside of the cabin to the outside? I'd like to mount some weatherized LED lights to illuminate the ground below the front doors which will fade-in / fade-out with the cabin light. Not really considered "puddle lights", I don't want to mount something on the mirror assemblies, but rather make use of the mounting holes typically reserved for running boards, bars and steps. Perhaps because the destination is the front door area (and potentially the rear doors... I haven't made my mind up), just want to know what the options are, what people consider the easiest thing to do.

 

Through the firewall in the front shouldn't be that much of a headache...probably something similar in the rear, along under cladding inside the cab and then out through small access points...Haven't done it myself yet, but they're great for lighting up camp and setup if you arrive after dark. A little less intrusive that fogs or lights on the cage.
