Running Lights Project...
thanks... I tried this on the back and it pealed off fairly easily. I'm concerned about it's longevity.
I'm thinking possibly epoxy and several very small wire ties.
Any more suggestions?
I haven't tied tape. Do you know of a marine grade that will withstand the weather?
Hopefully soon...
Yeah i hope so. Thanks.

This stuff is used to attach body mouldings and such, so it should be fine.

Thanks for the suggestions.
What I'm finding is even though glues will state plastic, there are exclusions for certain ones like polypropylene, which is what the faux vent is made of.
Right now I'm looking at a polymer bonding kit which is designed specifically to bond polypropylene.
Also, I'm still considering mechanical fastening.

Moving along.
I hope this doesn't turn out to be an exercise in futility...
I've bonded the led strips and applied a coat of plasti-dip to cover the led strip base. I used a cut-up straw/tape to protect the leds.

Oh damn I can't wait for the mounted pic, been thinking about doing this, how much for both the led strips, approx how long are they? Did you have to cut them ?

Yeah, I can't wait either. I know it's probably hard to believe, but I haven't had an opportunity to devote the time. It'll probably be late June before I finish it up.
The LED strip is really reasonable. Here's the URL for the LED strips:
