4. The LEDBERG hack involves creating wires for the 3 strip lightings

- First off at the back of each strip lighting there is a small circular tab that prevents the LED board from sliding out, melt away or drill through to remove it.

- Pull LED board out

- Desolder connector from board

- Solder wires to the connectors, placing a heat shrink on each connection part to prevent them from touching each other

- Put wires though the bottom of LED board and up through the hole to be solder onto the gold plates on the board.

- Repeat for 2 boards

- Place a wire organiser to cover wiring to look more nicely done up

5. Mount LED lighting to the underside of RAST bedside table top panel

6. Cut a piece of VARIERA Drawer mat to place on top surface

7. DONE!
