Default LED light strip from Ebay

Has anyone purchased one of these cheap led light stripes from Ebay? I want the one that changes to white when you back up but I question the quality...love to know how much you paid, where you purchased and quality.

Thats the exact one I have. I ordered the Recon Fire and Ice bar. Installs really easy and seems to be holding up fine. I put some clear silicone on the ends just to prevent moisture from gettign in the tube. I paid about $100 on eBay with free shipping.

i would recommend using some screws to mount it if you do gravel diving, or they put sand/salt on the roads where you live... mine got sand under the 3m tape and fell off

i got mine off ebay for 60 bucks and wired it to my trailor brakes so that i can still plug trailor brakes in the 4 pin (it came with a plug to just plug in the 4 pin but didnt like that idea) and i also ran three screws in mine so it doesnt fall off cuz the 3m tape didnt hold for nothing, otherwise mine has running, reverse, and blinker and ive never had a problem

Just ordered these last night. Should be installed by the end of next week. Not too bad of a price. I didn't get the reverse light ones, didn't seem necessary for my situation.
