RGB-LED-bike for 50$

Hello reader this instructable should show you how to build a really cool RGB-LED-bike for about 50$. I hope you like it, even if my english is not so good.
Things you need:
-a bike
-RGB-LED-Strips+ controller+remote
-12V battery
-acrylic glass
-aluminium tape
-duck tape
-some cables
-switches

Step 1: 1.Cleaning

The first step is cleaning the bike. I used water and soap to get the coarse soiling away. After I had dried I cleaned it with alcohol so that the LED-strips will stick better.

Could you post a link to where you got your strip lighting?

I ordered it on ebay from a german dealer, but I found something for you http://www.ebay.com/itm/5M-5050-RGB-SMD-LED-Waterproof-Flexible-Strip-300-LEDs-44-Key-IR-Remote-/110864929861?pt=US_Car_Lighting&hash=item19d0109445
It is from hong kong and it will take a while until it arrives but it is favorable and you get everything you need 5m of waterproof strip+controller and remote. The connectors look different, but this is no problem you might have to use some electrical tape to insulate them after you plugged them in. I hope this helps.
