Go to Amazon and search on "outdoor LED". Select your color and wire it in with your 12 v system. Don't forget to add a switch.
Thanks for the reply.

I already have the lights I posted above, white is the color.

I plan to buy one of the Plunger Switches I posted also, along with the wire, 18 gauge, maybe 20 gauge, from Amazon.I need to verify the amperage draw on the Lights I posted then I will decide what gauge wire to use.

Thanks for your thoughts on the subject !


Added:  I searched the web to locate similar LED Plate Lights, found a fe with different current requirements; the higher is 0.30 amp.

So Max situation, 6 Lights x 0.30 amps each = 1.8 amp total draw for  the circuit and I will be using 20 gauge wire, more than enough.

I will have to dig through my boxes of wire and see what I have, Red for power and Black for ground.
