I didn't want to post in on Safari's thread on LED lights. Those light strips are a great option. I figured I'd post up a DIY option that looks to use very similar lights and might give people the ability to customize thier own.

I bought 2- 5 meter rolls of these for my undercounter lighting and have used some for inside my cruiser. There are 3 LED's per section and the sections can be cut between the 4 copper points. Any length of LED is doable. The ones in the link come with a "waterproof" sleeve over the LED strip. This would work great in a tent or in the vehicle, but for something on the underside of your rig I would slip them into a PLexiglass or Clear PVC tub and cap the ends with Silicone. The one pictured on top of the roll in the photo below was done that way. Excuse the crappy solder job, i was in a hurry. They are really easy to solder. Follow the Ebay link to angel.edeal and you can find all different colors. The LED's come iinto two sizes. I bought the smaller size since most were going to be in my wifes kitchen. I'll be ordering a larger size soon. The White lights put off a slight blue tint, while the "Soft white is more yellow/ very slight green tint). At $40 per 16'+ of lights I thought it was a great deal.
