The neon-style rope is another lighting purchase in my kit. My roof-light work shows how I planned mounting positions and cable routes together, even though the fixtures in that diary are a different lighting format.

The item in my kit
I bought RGB Neon-Style Rope Light Kit as part of my camper van equipment.

Where it fits my build
I cut and drilled aluminum bracket pieces for the roof cameras and lights. The camera mounts needed additional holes and adjustments as I brought the assemblies together on the extrusion.
I sprayed the camera-mount pieces with black bedliner during the fabrication sequence. The coated brackets then formed part of the roof camera and light arrangements shown in the diary.

My build notes
The black finish was one stage within the mount fabrication. The holes and profile connections still determined where the pieces could sit, so the diary records the drilling and fitting alongside the coating.
The bracket shape, drilled holes and coating were separate parts of finishing the mount.
Alternative products
Two alternatives to compare
Govee and DAYBETTER use flat LED-strip formats rather than a neon-style diffusing profile, with different control packages and lengths.
Govee RGB LED Strip Kit
This flexible RGB lighting kit includes a controller for color and mode selection. Bluetooth app access provides an alternative to a standalone remote.
