1. An illumination attachment apparatus for a creeper having a frame and wheeled-platform, comprising: a plurality of light sources;a rechargeable power supply source for supplying electric energy to the plurality of light sources;wiring for routing the electric energy to the plurality of light sources;at least one cable for encasing the wiring, the cable having female and corresponding male housings for connecting or disconnecting the electric energy from the plurality of light sources;a plurality of rails, each rail of the plurality of rails having a channel for circumscribing at least a portion of the frame of the creeper; and,a plurality of magnets disposed within each channel of each rail of the plurality of rails for magnetically attaching and detaching the apparatus to the frame of the creeper,wherein at least one output of the plurality of light sources is emitted from along a length of at least one of the plurality of rails. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the plurality of rails comprises a head rail for attaching to a head portion of the frame of the creeper, a left mounting rail for attaching to a portion of a left side of the frame of the creeper, and a right mounting rail for attaching to a portion of a right side of the frame of the creeper. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the plurality of light sources are light-emitting diodes. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the plurality of light sources are light-emitting diodes in series. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the plurality of magnets are rare earth magnets. 6. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the plurality of rails are each electrically connectable to and each separable from one another by way of connecting and disconnecting the female and male housing of the cable. 7. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the rechargeable power source is a battery. 8. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising an electrical switch adapted to control a supply of the electric energy from the rechargeable power source to the light source. 9. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the head rail includes a light-emitting diode lamp having a flexible neck portion. 10. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the left mounting rail and the right mounting rail each include an opening for housing the at least one cable. 11. The apparatus of claim 2, wherein the head rail, left mounting rail, and right mounting rail each include at least one cut-away for avoiding a fastener of the frame of the creeper. 12. An attachment apparatus configured to be fitted to a head section and first and second opposed sides of an automotive creeper, the apparatus comprising: a first generally S-shaped member having a first three-walled, two-cornered section and a second three-walled, two-cornered section with one wall in common between the two sections, the first three-walled section forming a channel for circumscribing a portion of the first of the opposed sides of the creeper;a second generally S-shaped member in the mirror image of the first S-shaped member having a first three-walled, two-cornered section and a second three-walled, two-cornered section with one wall in common between the two sections, the first three-walled section forming a channel for circumscribing a portion of the second of the opposed sides of the creeper;a generally C-shaped member and a flange member joined to one side of the C-shaped member forming two, adjacently oriented, three-walled, two-cornered sections with one wall in common between the two sections, and one of the three-walled sections forming a channel for circumscribing a portion of the head section of the creeper;a series of light-emitting diodes disposed between a pair of opposed walls within the second three-walled section of the first S-shaped member thereby forming a tunnel within the second three-walled section of the first S-shaped member, and a series of light-emitting diodes disposed between a pair of opposed walls within the second three-walled section of the second S-shaped member thereby forming a tunnel within the second three-walled section of the second S-shaped member;a light-emitting diode lamp having a flexible neck portion attached to the flange member;a plurality of magnets disposed within each channel of each S-shaped member and the C-shaped member for magnetically attaching and detaching the apparatus to the creeper. 13. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the plurality of magnets are rare earth magnets. 14. The apparatus of claim 12, further comprising a rechargeable battery electrically connected to light-emitting diodes for supplying electric energy to the light-emitting diodes. 15. The apparatus of claim 12, further comprising an electrical switch adapted to control a supply of the electric energy from the battery to the light-emitting diodes. 16. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the first three-walled section of the first S-shaped member, the first three-walled section of the second S-shaped member, and the one of the three-walled sections forming a channel for circumscribing a portion of the head section of the creeper of the C-shaped member, each include at least one cut-away for avoiding a fastener on the creeper.
