I thought about installing mine there, but was afraid that I'd lose too much light, since they wouldn't be facing straight down. After seeing your spaceship lighting pics, I don't need to worry about light loss from that location.
Thank you for the inspiration.
Awesome ride, btw.

Yup, thats where they go. Nice and safe spot for em. I've had quite a few questions about em through PM's. Here are some answers:
Do they get dirty?
Sure, but never too dirty to obstruct the light. run it through the car wash and they clean off. The pic taken shows how dirty they get after not washing my truck for a month and two decent 4x4 trips.
Where did you get the strip LEDS?
Got em from V-Leds.com
Wont the tape come loose?
Naw, I doubt it, its high quality 3M tape on the back of the strip, I cleaned the surface with acetone and they are on there pretty good.
How bright are they?
VERY VERY BRIGHT.... IE. SPACESHIP
How long are they?
Can't give an exact dimension now, I ordered 6' sections, you can cut them to any length you want.
How much current do they draw?
Havn't calculated it out, but very little.
Hope that helps out!
