Now we have the mailbox on the bench, measure the mailbox from the top to the bottom and cut a piece of wood about the measurement

Screw it to the back of the mailbox and measure the perimeter

Drill a hole in the back of the mailbox to make the wire go through

Cut the led strip of the wood's length and glue it around like the photo

I put the power supply and the controller inside the mailbox
