Well..... IF the lights are 12vdc or 5vdc AND you are putting a PC in it... then you can use a power connector from the PC power supply. Thats what I did for the lights on the coin door. The PC power connector has pos 12vdc neg 12vdc and pos 5vdc and neg 5vdc as the 4 'pins'. I cant remember which is which off hand but many hard drives etc have it marked right on them so you can find it out there.
Hope that helps.
