Default LED interior lighting

anyone ever use LED interioir lighitng? I was walking thorugh autozone today and they had some very nice, flat 24" strip of LEDs. Just dont know where to put them. Any ideas? what color blue, red or white? Also has anyone ever used those step lights? they light up when you open the door so you can see what your stepping into lol. Anyone use those before? How do they look? thanks.

Big-time improvement to the hatch area lighting. Just tied the strip to one of the stock hatch lights and it's good to go

All of my bulbs, interior and exterior are LED. I have trunk surround lighting like JDM, red strip lights in the footwells, I've electrified the door reflectors, and put 19" light strips under the doors for puddle lights. You will do much better for led's on SUPERBRIGHTLED'S , OZNIUM or DIODE DYNAMICS rather than the local store or Ebay(quality wise)
