These lights work great:

I put the switch in the top right corner, on the back wall, ran wires between the pieces of drywall, so nothing snags them. Lights come on when door opens and go out after several minutes of no activity.
yeah pretty much the same thing as my set up but in a much nicer package haha and for a few more shekels. What can i say, I'm a cheap bastard.
