Just converted a unit for a workmate from t5 to LEDs so I'll share a couple pics. This has no 240v wiring so it's easy for anyone with some soldering skills to put together the leds are 5050 ip68 waterproofs, the soldering points aren't waterproof so I used some waterproof tape to cover the exposed sections.. 2 strips of white and one of blue. The power pack is a pre made 12v 2A converter same as what you use to charge a phone, camera etc but rated for the leds..
I just pulled the existing wiring out but left the fittings to keep the moisture out and drilled some 4mm holes to run the wiring through.
I soldered the strips in a continual run ending with the blue and attached a connecter to the power end
Finished off with some silicon over the soldered connections to keep them from rusting and that's it
