Need more info LEDs for what ?
12v led strip lights from eBay. The ones with 3M adhesive backing. I used about a meter and stuck them to the underside of the top panel all the way around. They work great. The power supply on the cycle is 24v so you will need to make two strips of LEDs and wire them in series before connecting them to the power supply. I also just used a switch next the main power switch to control the lights.
+1 I could even provide the link to the ones I ordered if you like. I ordered a 12" Bright White strand that plugs in via wall adapter (included). Also has the 3M adhesive tape, what I did was spliced in a rocker switch (also from ebay) to toggle the lights on and off.
I have 2 runs on both sides to the top, both sides running down the front and 2 runs across the top and the front top if my memory serves me right and I run them from a separate 12v power supply I also have my cooling fans for the X an Y motors running from the same supply and the extractor fan (ABS) and just for a bit more bling I have added 14 led’s (7 each side) on the cooling ducts and did I mention the LED’s are RGB run from a remote control
