I put one of the 18" led strips in blue down front bow of mine. I liked them but going to sound weird, but the ones I put in are too bright for the direction/spot I put them. Like them but wished I had put them in different spot. Mine had the adhesive backing on them but I just used that as temp hold. I siliconed mine into place. Taped it as well until silicone cured. Blue ones didn't do too bad on bugs some days, then other days seemed they swarmed it. To do over again or if I move I will find spot They shine away from drivers seat. Ruined my night vision in spot I have them currently.
