    Well Eric is using the truck at a show and I think I want to use different LEDs in the bed of the truck so I went ahead and started on my safe. Most of the work is done, I just half to wire in the roller switch. Here is what it looks like with no lights on in the room, just light from the LEDs along both sides and top of safe.

    What do you think? Keep in mind, they are 12v LEDs and I am only using a 9v battery in this photo. Once I get a 12v it will be much brighter!
