Bought a lightbar on friday, made a few wee mods to it so far but still need to fit stop/tail/indi (won't be done for a while), might get the bar fitted and pics if the weather is ok tomorrow

Those LEDs were £18 off ebay, thats for a pair at 4ft and a pair at 2ft long. The strips are about 10mm wide and a few mm thick, self adhesive, so it's basically a tape that lights up 8)
You need a smooth aurface to stick them to though. The lights in the load area are LED tubes which you can cable tie on

They're blue, if you want white you have to ask for it, think he can also do them in red, yellow, green

Just out of curiosity have you wired your lights off your second battery or off the original lights as i'm in two minds as to wire in a consumer unit or direct of the battery, using in line fuses due to the fact that I'm not intending to run much of the second battery IE cigar socket, rear cargo lights and possible a 500 whatt inverter at a later date.
