This model requires the LEDs to have an adhesive back, and it is quite cumbersome to solder the LEDs after sticking them down. In addition, the part needs to be rotated 40 degrees on the print bed on my MK4 to fit. I attempted to make this with a small amount of material used, so I had to sacrifice some stability for the lack of material. The printed extrusions in the pictures look like they're sagging due to those consequences.
I did not have to use glue to keep the extrusion in its housing, so I recommend tuning your extrusion width and flow before printing this.
The LED strips usually get hot from just being on for a while, but PLA does the trick just fine. If you end up getting warping due to the length of the part, add some brims. There won't be much room however to fit them.
I recommend using these settings:
Nozzle: 0.4
Layer height: 0.1mm [I like to make things more details and I can wait a little for it]
