After upgrading my MK4S to Core One I decided to repurpose the extra LED light bar I had left over. The LED's were inside two nice aluminum channels with the diffuser lids. This is the kit: https://www.printables.com/model/493459-led-light-bar-prusa-mk4 No point in wasting this plus I really like the extra lights.
The aluminum is attached to the 45 degree bevel on the inside of the Core One. I just used automotive grade double sided tape. Then modified the wiring a little to give me some wiggle room. The rest of the wires exit between the rear fans and eventually under the printer. I repurposed some of the mesh wire wrap from the MK4S to hide the wire in the back of the enclosure.
I remixed the Display Mount R2 from the Core One replacement parts and added a small pocket on the left side to house a small switch. I used this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GNHMY3B?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_6 and it fits.
The LED's are powered by one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078RY7BPL?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_3&th=1 - I did not tap into the printer's power supply because it is just easier to wire the switch to this power supply.
I like how this turned out - the two LED strips on either side really add a lot of extra illumination to the build area.
