Hey Aaron !
The LEDs arrived today, thanks bud. Isn't the postal service awsome? 9 days to go 500 miles lol
This going to work great, with these lights and I found the magnet wire that Nathan mentioned ( thanks dude ) at a local electronics store.
I plan on using the shrink tube on the lower mirror arm then the light in the corner and another tube covering the rest. It will secure the led no problem.The two small wires will follow the bracket all the way around.

Hmmmm, Nathan. Do you think heating the shrinktube around the magnet wire will melt the insulation? I have to make a note to test this out first.....

Anyway, thanks for the help so far guys.

Mario
