A while ago I bought a used shell for my Tacoma and quickly discovered that finding things at night in a dark shell is not a lot of fun so, I decided to add some LED lights. My requirements were reasonable price, a warm color temperature (I really dislike bright white lights in camp), dimmable, and good light coverage throughout the shell.
This project is pretty straightforward but I took some pictures in case anybody is interested.
The final install includes two 4' long LED bars velcroed to the roof and a dimmer on the side wall. The wiring uses a weatherproof quick disconnect so the shell can be removed if necessary.
The lighting is a nice warm color and fills the entire shell.
