Under awning led strip mounted shoddy or a normal mount job?

New 2020 four winds 22e. Before I go backing out a ton of well torqued down screws from the sidewall, is this normal looking? It almost looks like wiring might be crammed under the mount plate that holds the leds in a few spots. I don’t mind that the led isn’t straight in a few places but don’t want it to lead to other problems. Thanks. Click image for larger version

I’m not sure I understand your concern...if the light strip is secure and it works it probably is fine. The wiring should come off of one end.

I wish my Hurricane LED lights had been secured like yours. Mine was in a channel that was sewn into the awning. The threads failed in less than 2 years and I had to replaced the entire strip.

Water seeping into where it overlaps at the top from not being flush against the sidewall?That’s the concern.
