Core One LED light strips
On my MK4S, I had this LED light bar setup: https://www.printables.com/model/493459-led-light-bar-prusa-mk4. With a little effort, I repurposed the two LED light bars into the Core One...
First, add some length to the wires between the two bars. Then, using some double sided tape, the light bars mount on the bevel inside the Core One's frame.
The trick is mounting the switch to the bottom xLCD mount. I used the R2 version and made a small pocket to mount a switch. Switch can be sourced from Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GNHMY3B?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_6.
The LED's are powered by this power supply: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078RY7BPL?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_3&th=1
The remix for the base is here: https://www.printables.com/model/1384680-core-one-xlcd-display-mount-r2-with-switch-for-led
I'm pretty pleased with the result and it really makes things bright for using a camera.

Hey just curious, what kind of bar did you use to mount it, or did you just mount it directly to the upper corners?

The bars were repurposed from the light kit I had purchased for my MK4. However you can source extruded aluminum bars that include the plastic cap from Amazon. They work very well too. I used automotive double sided 3M tape to install the mounts on the inside area of the enclosure.
