Hi all came across these on Ebay, look like they would make strip light connections easier.
Just use heat shrink when finished , buyer is "tl minimodel",there is no buy it now,
. Price wise about $7 for 15 pieces free post. comes in 8mm and 10mm wide to suit which ever
LED strip light you have.

Yeah I thought that too and I hate scotch locks, but your life is not depending on it
and if you don't have a soldering iron it may just be the thing to make up some strips of led for different jobs

Thanks 3D. Nice one. when i did all my LED years ago i could not find anything like that and all mine is soldered.

Looking for that item on ebay is tough as you cant search by seller in ebay mate. Need the link. Just copy and paste the link from the URL at the top of the page mate, embedding it here is simple once you have done it once. Next time you have a member of the forum at your place ask him to show you how. ;)

Here is a link to a HEAP of this type of stuff now for LED strip lighting! Connectors, 4 way splitters! Stuff!

Do something do it right, I love the strips wired back to led buttons.

I did it when I had everything stripped out of the interior, ran the under car ones thru the body mount grommets ether side.

Under bonnet lights look like a great idea. Shouldn't be to hard to set them up to come on with a switch like a boot light would.
