Prusa i3 MK2 LED Light strip Brackets

UPDATED DESIGN

https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3321209

I came across a very cheap LED Strip Light available on eBay, so I designed a simple bracket that requires no fixings; it simply hooks & holds in place on the Prusa frame. The Light strip itself then holds in place by inserting it sideways and then twisting to lock in place.

IMPORTANT NOTE

This bracket is not suitable for very large Prints as the LED holding brackets comes into contact with the X bars on the carriage. The Brackets will also need to be removed when aligning/calibrating the Z axis.
