what is the right name for strip lights used in limo's?

I have searched with every name I can think of online or on Ebay. Looking for that strip lighting that is in a square plastic tube. Snaps into special molding.

Would like to replace the strip I have jammed in the seam of the back of my car. I got it a long long time ago when working at a limo place. About half of the lights are out but it still works.

kind of light Christmas tree lights.

 

Anyone have a clue?? I have searched all over. I could maybe get a better pic. Its just a square tube of red plastic with a bunch of low power 12v lights in a row.

Most times you see it in white in a limo run down the head liner.

 

its called rope light.

 

No not rope lights. I have a blue rope light.

This is a square hard plastic. not flexible. It made to fit into a square track. That rope light stuff is Hugh compared.

close but no banana.

 

That's a pretty interesting mod there. It's not my thing, but I like the idea of using that sort of lighting rather than going down the horribly tacky neon route.

 

It would look better if they all were lit. But you really can't see them unless you know where to look. They come on with running lights.

But if you look it is just jamed between the tail lights and bumper. Its a tight space but they fit well. rope lights would never fit / stand out all the time.

 

I dunno, personally I would be more concerned with that hideous yellow growth on your license plate....

Sorry, couldn't resist a lame joke

 

running lights or molding lights maybe?

 

Opra lights.

 

are u sure they arn;t cathodes?

 

Could be. The bubls are so tiny they are like a led but not. I know now a days its all led but them square strips are nice.
