Wireless is actually a misnomer in this case as the wires are hidden inside the roll bar. I just thought it would be nice to have the wiring out of sight and protected. I'm sure other folks have done the same. I drilled a small hole between the two lights for wire connection access and used a round high strength magnet as seen in the photo to cover the hole.

These LED's, at nine watts each for a grand total of 1.5 amps at 12V, are incredibly bright. They are $19.14 for the pair on Amazon.

Just make sure when you string lights like that you leave yourself a nice long lead of a least a foot that you can put stuff down inside there for slack. I just had to fix the OEM on my Nancy and it was a nightmare because I had to actually spice a section of cable in because it was absolutely no way to get enough wire to put it back together I actually had to splice in a couple of feet of wire and tuck it all inside just so I could finish fixing the thing , and they use tiny tiny little wires.

What in the world is a "Nancy"?
