JP7,

I guess that I'm not quite clear on how you are attaching the LED strip to the light lens.

I see how you've cut out most of the light housing in order to provide clearance for the LED strip, but then you are saying to use double sided tape to hold the LED strip in place.

How is that going to work? The only way that I can see using the double sided tape in this case to to put some tape on the inside of the lens, then placing the LED strip in there, but in that case the tape would be blocking the light output of the LED strip, right?

How about holding the LED strip to the Light Lens with clear silicone. Wouldn't that work? At least that way you would be able to replace the LED strip if necessary by cutting the silicone, which would be a lot harder to do if you used an epoxy.
