Hi FFEMT58, i just uploaded all the pictures for my LED's.. They're in my album(55g latest). One of my mates built the new hood and another mate painted it!!. I don't have any sparky mates so i had to do that part myself!!. The pictures don't really do it justice as it is alot brighter in person..It was handy enough to install, took a bit of time though. I had LED strip connectors i bought on ebay, but i found it better to solder the wires individually. I know the install doesn't look the prettiest(my diy skills are fairly basic!!) but it's all hidden and can't be seen...If you have any more questions let me know...Ian
Yeah no problem. Yeah they work for me, very cheap to buy(tons of sellers on ebay), virtually no heat, very little power(i think it's about 8w) and i think there life span is about 50,000hrs!!. Just pm me whenever and i'll gladly help you if i can...
FFEMT58, I'll pm ya in a few mins with all the details...
Hi billsey420, yeah it just sits on the glass with plactic type blocks??, sorry i'm not sure of their proper name. If ya look closely at the corner pic below you'll see what i mean!!. There only a few cents each, they screw in and come in many sizes. You could use pieces of timber either. They just rest on top of the glass. The wood is moisture treated MDF(not sure if it's called something else in the US). The picture below is before my mate painted it. It's basically sheets of paper, sawdust, glue layered together but it's very strong..It's also very cheap, it cost about 15euro($20) for the wood, 5Euro for the rest-hinges, handle....
