Overall this only took about an hour to do the soldering and fit everything into the hood.

Wired them to the old 2-pin fan adapters

I mounted one strip with my angle adjustable moonlight from my custom LED build.

Originally I had this one on the fan, but I later moved it down to the heatsink.

I re-purposed the original power connector from the old PC lighting system to power the PCB board.
