I bought these lights off amazon and these connectors.
If you remove the left tail light there is a wire pigtail there where the OEM bed lights connect to. It is already prewired to the bed light button in the dash. I extended the wiring all the way to the front of the bed and then spliced in two of the connectors (one for left rail one for right rail).
I cut the LED strip in half and wired one on either side. I used Gorrilla double stick mounting tape to mount up under the bed rails.
All in all it took about 2-3 hours.
LED strip (12V, 60 LEDs/m, 5050 LEDs) is darn cheap, fairly bright, and all over the internet. Here's 5m of white on Amazon. If that's not bright enough, you can get higher lumen LED arrays that run on 12V.
You could use some little toggle switches or maybe rocker switches.
Music activated? Don't use that strip, it has only 150 LEDs.
Use this one instead, 14 bucks: http://www.amazon.com/SUPERNIGHT-TM-Waterproof-Flexible-Lighting/dp/B00DTOAVYY/
