Here's a link to the lights I installed.

Even put them outside under the rain gutter, with 12v switches.

Easy and you won't see them until you turn them on.
I actually wired interior ones into the light over the cabinet left of the stove, so when I switch that on, the LED's come on too.

Here's a link to them on Amazon. https://tinyurl.com/y697fmtg
