Ghetto fabulous dome light

A few weeks ago I was perusing the aisles at Chinazone and came across these LED strip lights. They had a test button on them, so I tried em out, and they are pretty freakin bright, so I thought I could use them as a dome light in the trail rig. They come in quite a few different colors (white, blue, red, yellow, green, etc) but the white made sense for a dome light.

I wired them up yesterday, and they are awesome! The back of them has some super sticky 3M tape, so I just stuck them to the roll cage. I wired them to a switch on my dash, got power from the acc fuse panel, and grounded to the cage. If you're in need of some interior lights I recommend them. Here's a pic for ya

There is a thread on pirate for led lights a string of 20 lights for 26 bucks shipped. Bright as Hell work Damn good. And cheap enough to not worry about knocking them off in a rock light setup. Used. Them on buggy build. I will see if I can dig up info and pics

I think they were $25ish for the two strips and have around 10 per strip. You could use them for rock lights like Evil said or maybe even a third brake light if you wanted to. I was thinking about getting red ones for underneath, but white would obviously work better for rock lights.
