Under Cabinet lighting for corner cabinet

Hi, I am wondering how everyone has done their under cabinet lighting when it comes to the corner cabinet. I am using a non-ikea light bar which I will place at the front of the cabinets. (shameful I know but I liked the light color the best). Do I order three bars one for each cabinet and place it towards the front? Or do I order two bars long enough to meet in the middle of the corner cabinet? very confused. Trying to get these ordered today but didn't know how to handle the corner. Thanks in advance!

Re: Under Cabinet lighting for corner cabinet

I used florescent lights for my under cabinet lighting - and have a light that run all the way to the corner (to the wall) on one edge of the corner cabinet - and then the other edge of the corner cabinet doesn't have any lighting - the next light strip starts on the cabinet to the right of the corner cabinet. The whole corner is evenly lit. I think it will depend on what type of lighting you are using.

I hope this reply helps.
