Question LED Engine Bay Lights?

Anyone have any pics where they mounted these to show off engine? Thinking about doing this with a few lights to show it off at night when at shows. Thanks for the info and pics

I always get compliments on my setup.

Only got 2 pics. Hard to take shots of UV light at night.

If you ever have a leak, just add some uv dye and wait for it to get dark!

I used LED strips strategically placed inside the engine bay as to avoid being able to see the LEDs directly; just the LED glow to show off the engine. Being able to see the LEDs directly would have totally been "ricer".

Yeah. I've had them on for about a year and they're all still working just great.
