Lights Under Overhead Cabinets

On our 2015 Windsport 27K we have one of those UGLY LED fixtures with two lamps and a slide switch mounted under the cabinets over the dinette. Same in the bedroom, the same UGLY fixture that is way too bright over our heads when in bed.

I want to replace both with some dimmable LED lights I found on Amazon, RV Boat Ceiling Light . There is about a 2 inch space between the cabinet floor and the bottom of the cabinet where Thor has run wiring for the existing lights and speakers. Has anyone figured out how to remove the floor in the cabinet to access this space?

Thanks,

Looks really nice. Where did you run the wire to the light? Or did you just replace the existing UGLY fixture?

Just replaced the ugly lights I did have to get a matching furniture crayon from Home Depot to fill in 2 holes that new light didn’t cover
