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,

Love the look of the extra light. How did you wire the Amazon LEDs?
I ran a two conductor wire and wired each one in parallel and ran it to a switch in my battery box (Battery box was a previous mod). All waterproof connections.
I can take pictures next time I have it over.
