Hello all,

If anyone is looking for moonlights, I ordered a set for http://www.digikits.com/index.htm as you can see from the picture it has a real nice look and if you buy the dimmer ($5.50 more) the lights are very variable to the desired look you are trying to achieve, the lights are set at max on the dimmer in this picture. Was delivered within 2 days so shipping is fast.
The price of the unit for a 48" is about $42.00 with the dimmer and comes as 2, 23.1/4 long joined to give you the 48".
As you can see it come encased in a square 3/4" clear plastic tube. I took mine and removed the center connection and soldered it to be shorter and purchased a 1" aluminum U channel ($7) and inserted in to make it a one piece and works
like a charm and cuts any light escaping from the sides.

I forgot to mention that these are LED lights.
I'll post a picture of my final project with the aluminum channel.
Makes for a clean set up.
