Need some lighting advice....

Ok fellow forummers here is a 3D render of what my finished lounge will look like.

original thread and how I am progressing is here:
http://www.avforums.com/forums/home-...-progress.html

Now the only thing I am not sure what to do with is the lighting. I am on the lower ground floor flat so I cannot inset any downlighters.
Have been looking at these but not sure how to implement.
IKEA | Integrated lighting | Bookcases integrated lighting | DIODER | Multi-use lighting

help!

Those look very nice mate, I think I'll get some and either fit them behind the TV or in the fireplace where Im going to be storing the AV equipment.

Maybe you could fit them behind your TV or in behind your Amp etc?

I was thinking the same thing, maybe the building is cast concrete with no void?

Sorry, yes it has a concrete ceiling and I would have to create a false ceiling which I am not really willing to do.

Bought them today. I though I would add some piccies for you all.

With the flash on.

once I finally worked out how to turn off the flash!

Will slot them behind my TV. I am hoping 3 led pods will be enough so I can feed one down to the AV shelf.

As I don't have the dimming equipment I cannot really say. I would assume so but hey, what do I know?

Sorry.
