Thanks US1 Fountain...I think I'll give these a shot. Save me a lot of $$$ over the other version I was thinking about.

Your right, but they would look cool for when i do decide to stay out late.

The ones I linked to are identical to the pipedreams but also are RGB with a remote for less than half the cost. There are only a handful of manufacturers of these things on the planet. They're all the same stuff.

Somewhat true, but those are too big for locating behind JL speakers grills.

I actually prefer the solid color vs the changing colors and remote setup. Plus I'm looking for purple LED's and up until now couldn't find a solid color, flexible strip in purple that was waterproof and could put in the engine bay, safely.

The RGB's are adjustable to whatever color you want via the included remote control. You can even make them pulse if you want to. If you goto the ebay store of that vendor they have solid color as well...for even less money....which are the same size as what US1 used. I.E. Same stuff....less money. LOL

they plug into eachother or you can wire them separate. they work great so far. I used the power coming to my courtesy lights in the storage compartments... added 2 foot n each side and another foot on each side under my cutp holder/arm rest for the back bench. it worked out Well. now you can see where to walk, and has nice glow. will get pics up soon.

36 foot long strips = 1 amp.. so my 6 are like .2 amps. haha.

I got some from the same place. I haven't installed them yet, would like to see the pictures of yours. They where the only place that had good prices. LEDS are not a new technology and should not cost the hundreds of dollars that most places charge.
