Thanks Nick. I am well familiar with the led strip lighting you can cut, as I used a roll of it to prototype some modular panels. I eventually designed and hand soldered (a pain!) several of these boards using the same 5050 smt leds (my wife wrote all of the microcontroller code). This is a short video of those boards :-)

One of the main problems with led lighting is heat sinking. Some of the RV modules do not handle heatsinking at all..they just glob a few dozen leds on a terminal and call it a light. This Sylvania fixture has a nice amount of heat sink, which means the leds will last longer than the camper.
I will give you a call if I see some things we need at your store.
