Abstract
An LED lighting kit comprises an extrusion (), an LED strip (), a tapered wedge (), and a mounting clip (). The extrusion itself may have a recessed linear groove of sufficient width and depth to seat the LED strip. The clip is sized and shaped to springably engage ledges () in a first channel () of the extrusion when the strip is mounted. In one aspect, two extrusions are butted end-to-end and are aligned by inserting the tapered wedge into the first channel of each extrusion prior to butting them together. The extrusion contains a second channel () that houses the LED strip. A translucent diffuser () is springably inserted into the second channel, thereby diffusing light that is emitted by the LED strip.
