Pop top lighting

What are peoples solutions to putting lighting in the poptop, hard wired, where do you put the switch?
 
I have my main leisure electrics under both front seats, but run a big power cable to a fuse box near the base of the c pillar where my fridge lives, and the lighting circuit is powered off this.

So power from under the passenger seat, up the b pillar, above the sliding door, down the c pillar to fuse box. Then back up the c pillar, over the door and down to the switch, then up to the lights which are grommeted just above the passenger grab handle in the pop top frame.

If you have power under the front passenger seat you can skip the backwards and forwardsing - it is just where a lot of my stuff connects in.
 
I had a usb socket going spare so I fitted in the top shelf behind the drivers head. You can reach it easily from the bed. I also had a usb neon strip , so I ran it under the shelf trim to the back, up near the hinge and round the top. Not sure how to fix it so just heald in place with bits of velcro.
Bought a usb clip light from amazon and good to go. Van clip it to the bed base or the side roof of the van and when down can be a spotlight over the hob/sink.
