I spent the morning installing a 12V LED tape light kit around the roof line inside my GEM. The outcome is awesome. This was a very simple project. I used 1-16 foot white only dimmable LED Tape light kit. The kits utilizes a remote on and off switch that also has a dimmer, see the picture of the remote. I needed; 1. a set of wire strippers 2. a pair of wire cutters 3. 3 zip ties 4. Some blue masking tape Unfortunately all the pictures I took during the install did not come out so I only have the finished product to show. I hooked up the lights to test them off a single battery. Then using the blue tape to hold the LED tape lights in the route I laid out to ensure I had enough. Then I wired the remote sensor directly to one of my batteries (I will move this to the fuse block soon). I tested the lights once more where I had them to make sure they looked good I cleaned the area well with soap and water so the tape on the back of the lights would stick. I then peeled the paper off the LED Tape lights and pressed them in place. I had to go back and really make sure that all the areas between the lights were firmly secured. I used zip ties to attach the remote activator and wires the the battery securing bar temporarily until I can run everything back to the fuse box. I took a picture of the kit I used. I did not use the 110v power converter supply or the additional connectors provided. This is a fully remote, dimmable LED system that sells for about $30 on Amazon. I will be purchasing 3 more RBGWW (red-blue-green-warm white)remote kits for under the dash and under the car. This took about 1.5 hours. I will post pictures of what it looks like at night, tonight. ---

One is full bright, one is mostly dimmed and the last is through the back window. The indian blanket, it keeps my dog from trashing my seats. ---

The pictures are no longer here but I am changing all my LED’s to RGBW full spectrum lights. I got them on Amazon a few days ago. I have 32’ of lights. The old lights where primarily indoor lights and these are fully exterior. I will post the installation and final pics soon.
