Power for LED strip

I'm thinking about getting a 12v light strip like this one from PPL for my 2013 Landmark (made before the line included factory-installed lights). I plan to install it on the side of the rig, right below the power awning, so that I can use it whether the awning is open or closed. It looks like it needs to be hardwired into the DC system.

Any suggestions for the best way to get 12v power and ground from the rig to the light strip?

When I installed my LEDs I ran the wire from the LED strip down the awning bracket along side the awning motor.
I entered the RV in the same place as the awning motor wire. I found a 12 volt wire and a neutral wire to tap into as it was under the dresser.
I installed a dimmer with remote for the LEDs so that is where I mounted the receiver.
Your Landmark may need some creative wiring.

Peace
