I was looking towards installing awning lights on my trailer, mounted against the house vs on the roll. But then I visited someone that had them, and I didn't like the light, nor the glare when looking towards the trailer.
So I bought a dozen LEDs off Amazon for cheap, and added them to the bottom of my frame rail. I made one mount, tested it, liked the ambiance, so I made more. I added 5 total, but I think I may add one towards the hitch, one at the steps, and one facing back.
Unfortunately I have the trailer parked near the curb,so you don't get the full effect of the light. I will update the pictures after this weekend trip.
It was pretty dark last night, considering the street light was out, so it really put out a lot of good light.
Happy Trails,

Nice! I just installed LED strip lights under mine this past weekend.

Another option for mounting your LED lights, especially with the style frame beam you have, would be to use beam clamps with the 1/4" threaded holes. Clamp to the beam then just screw in the 1/4" screw holders you already have!
