Thanks Ed, those are exactly what I have been looking for, just ordered a pair of white/amber strips. Got some wiring to do on the new EFI quiet tech and now have everything I need. Adding the light strips, a well hidden marine grade kill switch, and a Nilight 12 inch spot/flood combo light bar with a dedicated relay, fuse, and rocker switch. Gonna put a brush guard on the front to mount the light bar to. Thanks again : )

Hoping you’ll post some pics along the way.

I agree that Custom Dynamics is a top tier source of LED lighting, but they may not be the best vendor for golf cart lighting. Custom Dynamics designs and builds their LED products at their facility in North Carolina, and they source their OSRAM LEDs from Germany. Their products carry a no-BS lifetime warranty. I run Custom Dynamics LED lighting on two Harley-Davidson motorcycles because they are simply the best lighting solutions on the planet, and when I ride, I want to be seen. So, what is the problem for golf cart use? Cost. You could expect to spend about 4-5x what a typical Asian LED strip would cost. If money is no object, and you want the best, call Custom Dynamics and talk to their people...their tech support is top notch, located in the USA, and speaks English.

For most folks, though, the guy at Markets of Marion will fix you up just fine, at a much lower price point.

Led lights
 
I had trouble finding them as well. The one from markets of Marion lasted a few week and were junk. Found them on Amazon but you have to search running board light to dind the white ones that have the chasing yellow for turn signal

Most carts have a main fuse, and if you exceed the ratings, it blows, and the cart is dead, I have seen this a few times on gas carts. I use separate fusing and a relay to isolate the additional lighting. NOTE: some of the newer carts have electronic self cancelling turn signals, and i have no idea how much additional load these electronic modules can handle.

We are talking milliamps from an LED strip, sir......
