Just a heads up on those side-emitting thin LED strips. I had a pair of them from lightingnext, and I tried using as my first attempt and they are VERY finicky if you decide to cut any of them off the end where it says you can (usually ever 3 lights). I tried doing that with mine to make them fit and one strip would only work if it was bent a certain way and the other only half worked. If you do decide to get those make sure you get a length where you dont have to cut them to size, or you might have problems and be wasting money.
