    Just wanted to see what people have done for lighting in their bed when you have a cap on. I have nothing in mine currently. Bonus points if you can use it with a hard tonneau cover too.

    @mattgecko can probably do a custom set for a cap unless he has something already which I think he does.

    Right?! So nice being able to just hit the switch (just inside the tailgate) and see what I'm doing.

    Some of the reviews complained about the adhesive on the LED strips not sticking well and having to use 3M tape, but I cleaned the surface really well with alcohol and haven't had any problems yet.

    I stuck two of the strips to the fuzzy topper headliner, so I just stuck the sticky tape onto Velcro, it’s held just fine. The third strip I stuck to the inside of the topper window, no issues there either. Flip that switch on and it’s now daylight in there. Well worth the money.
