Under Rail Bed Lights
I couldn't find any pics on this forum of the Under Rail Bed Lights so here some are. I put them in yesterday. Fairly simple and I was impressed by the amount of light they put out. I've got an undercover tonneau cover so I just put a jamb switch on the bed rail so when I open the cover the lights come on.

It's a kit from RECON. There are four LED pods on each string and it comes with two strings. Each pod has 6 white LEDs. I considered hooking it up through the interior illumination switch so that it would come on when I opened the doors or hit unlock on the key fob...but the jamb switch was easier than tapping the dome light wire.

I wish I had seen them prior to me installing the back-up (fog lights) on the back of my truck. I don't like the looks of them (mine I mean). I had thought about moving those lights in the bed somewhere or in the tool box.

Another Twist
Your lights look great.
I'm thinking of getting a couple of strips of 12v rope lights and put down the undersides of the bed rails.
Searching around it looks like there are companies you can get the lights for about $25. I just don't know how bright the rope lights will be.
