    Sorry for all the questions! The product you linked (I think I will likely get that one, checking on Amazon, the one you linked seems to be a good bet) is 5m long.

    No worries at all! The LED strip can be cut to whatever length you want. It's marked where you can do so, all you need is a pair of scissors. Animal Plastics routes the LED channel about 6" from the back of the cage top. Sits just behind the heat panel. I'd definitely recommend having AP do the recessed LED channel for you. Well worth the $10.
    When installing the light strip I fed it through the top of the cage, left enough hanging out at the connecting end so that I could connect to the transformer/power supply and then cut it at the closest length that fits the channel. I'll try to post some pics shortly. Also check out the How to set up a PVC cage (AP T8) With Pictures!sticky on here. Way helpful and informative thread!
