Are you talking about the LEDs in the hardtop or somewhere else?

I've done a few utes with LEDs I the hardtop, will put a picture up when I find one.

Hardest part is not having the cables visible in the hardtop.

yeah well with a hard top but not on the actual lid.... around the top of the tub maybe?

what did you do for a switch and stuff?

a pic would be great if you could! cheers

It's a bunch of strip lights off eBay wired in through a switch attached to one of the side panels, you can run all the wires needed through the petrol tank vents and the sides of the tray.

Take some of the panels in the tray off and have a look - it'll be quite obvious how to do it then.

Oh sweet as man, I'll do that but I'm thinking of putting it on a remote switch instead... It will be a tone easier if I can find somewhere to put a small receiver :p thanks a tone man
