I used the white 6" oval LED's for my dome lights. They work great. Used switches to run them & 18 ga. speaker wire. They hardly draw any juice when running. I say go for it, simple & cheap too.

Look also at led strip lighting, 5 meters for 5 bucks, must cut and solder, but great lights

I use LED strip lights both in the galley and in the cabin, and use surface mount LED puck lights for task lighting. All running off my 12 volt battery system. All from www.superbrightleds.com

I replaced my incandescent light bulbs with LED back-up taillight bulbs and I can see better with those than with the original bulbs.
