Does anyone know why my interior LED strip has gone yellow (well almost an orangy-browny colour really)? The output is really dull and barely noticeable now too - they used to be bright, white light. Other interior lights remain unchanged so I don't think it's a power or battery issue. The van...

Hi all, I just want to add some LED strips into the roof lining of my T6... surely I do not need to go down the split charger ect route to do so? Can I not just connect them to the existing interior light cables and add a 3-way rocker switch? Thanks

Just re-vamping sons bedroom and want to install some of the 3 colour ribbon LED lights usually used in kitchens. We need 3 maybe 4 sections of LEDs joined by cables with a controller to select the colours. Max 6 meters of lighting. There seems a plethora of suppliers / makes on the...

I've got a transporter panel van and will be installing some shelving. I'd like some LED strips under the shelves that will come on and off like the current lights (as the doors open and close). Anyone know any information about how to do this?

Dear forum, I want to put strip LED lighting along the inside ceiling edge of the rear of my transporter. LED strips of 10m are easy to find and cheap on ebay - although don't mind spending a bit of money on quality. Question is, and I'm clueless with electrics, - can I just wire into...

Hi all. Have really been pondering the idea of customising a set of H4 headlights, putting in Hids and strips. Have a few ideas and was wondering if anyone had done anything like this and / or what strips did they use to get round any Canbus errors? Also I should ask how far you can go with...

Ok, so I've got a shed load of 12v led strip/ ribbon lights left over from the kitchen and wondered about putting the in the van. I'm thinking in the tailgate area just to add a bit of light when loading up at night. Could I just take a feed from the light in the back or is it more complicated...
