+1 on Superbrightleds.com . I have placed several orders with them and never a problem. Good prices and fast shipping.
I have tried cheaper "hong kong" leds off ebay and i was replacing them a week later.
Your engine bay looks good.

Want it to stick for good? Hit it with laq thinner next, a wipe down then rinse with water.
Follow with a 220 grit rub down, another rinse, and final with a wax/grease remover.
For paint I use rustoleum white with a valspar hardener added. Two coats.

Weed sprayer filled with purple power, followed by a heavy power wash, wipe down with towel, drill with a wire brush, wipe down again, spray with rust oleum high heat primer, spray with rustomeum high heat paint... Seems to be very well adhered.

I also use rustoleum white (with a touch of almond to get the right color) with a valspar hardener added. Two coats.
