I removed the light fixture over the kitchen sink and removed all of the florescent electrical content simply by unclipping and unsnapping things off. I did have to use a soldering iron to remove the circuit board because of the way the on/off switch pierced through it from behind. Everything could easily be reassembled back to "original" if my lighting conversion is not satisfactory.
Though the reel of LEDs have not yet arrived, I got a jump start on this because I am locating a replacement switch from a single click to a double click. Center being "off", one direction being full lighting. The other being only a tiny strip of LEDs for mood/night lighting.
Here are the dimensions I need to find a physically same size replacement 3-way switch. They are sold very cheap on ebay, 10 for $6.00 but unfortunately they are not stating dimensions.
ENGLISH DIMENSIONS
Switch Body - 0.73" x 0.48"
Switch Escutcheon Plate - 0.82" x 0.59"
White Switch Plate Opening (for body) - 0.75" x 0.51"
Lens Opening (for escutcheon plate) - 0.835" x 0.60"
METRIC DIMENSIONS
Switch Body - 18.5mm x 12mm
Switch Escutcheon Plate - 21mm x 15mm
White Switch Plate Opening (for body) - 19mm x 13mm
Lens Opening (for escutcheon plate) - 21.2mm x 15.2mm
