    I think the time has come, I want to try to fit apx 6-12 leds on my tek light fixture. I plan on using leds without optics, and using sheet metal screws to mount them into the case of the light around the splash guard. The purpose of this is to add a shimmer effect to the T-5 lighting. Has anyone else done this and do you foresee any issues?

    Still trying to decide if its feasible which i think it is, and if its worth it lol. Might not use sheet metal screws and instead just epoxy them on.
