    I sure would like to know what kinda lights this Home Despot place you're talking bout sells. What voltage are their lights to where you have to "figure " it out? Sounds interesting.

    Home Despot has orange signs and they spell Despot wrong. Look in the lighting dept, they sell long strings of those lights for house use. If the converter goes to 12 -14 v just hook em up direct. Otherwise it'll require some hunting for a converter.

    I have mine on a Volvo 780. I used ip68 waterproof rgb light strips. $75 a strip 16' length. I will post pics later but it's really easy to do. Btw the lights are 12 volts.

    Volvo’s have a bad rap. They are good trucks. No more problems then a Pete or Kenworth

    And some of it too is how you take care of your vehicle. My grandad always said take care of your stuff, it'll take care of you.
