hot glue, doesnt come off either since the leds produce so little heat

Why not use 3m tape instead?

Depending on the size of the boards you can fit 4 in total in the overhead dome .
Also LED's do need to breathe as they do produce some heat if they are brighter ones with more than 20 lumens . Have it mounted so the forward face of the LED is not touching anything . It will extend its life by not creating hotspots .

dunno, hard to find a way to 3m tape them since the LEDS face down. i know they need to breathe there is some room in there i guess to avoid any LED's touching the plastic i could make a panel and 3m tape it to them.... might look into that,thanks
