Just FYI.

I put 6 LED lights in my van's ceiling, using 14AWG SO cable. Prior to installing the lights we used those cheap Harbor Freight magnetic LED puck lights, and some battery-powered LED christmas lights (the tiny lamp kind).

Since having the wired lights in the van, we still use the magnetic LED lights and christmas lights far more, and only rarely use the wired lights. After a year or so I kind of deem them useless. We have about 12 magnetic lights stashed throughout the van, as well as 3 runs of christmas lights, and a carton of cheap AA batteries in case our batteries run out.

Big dollar investment:

Regularly free with other purchase. Have 3 of them in the van. One in front beverage holder and two hanging from rear door jam. The hook in back fits in a punched slot in the rear door jam and the magnet on the back holds it in place.

We went big and bought like 12 of those. Then eventually replaced with a similar light, but from Amazon (the HF lights will eventually stop working).

We put them in the spot on the rear door, and basically hang or hook them wherever we have a place to do so. AND we have our 6 wired interior lights and LED christmas lights. Its weird, because we really don't use our lights that much, even....
