Fairly trivial to make a CR ballast.

would that be non-isolated from mains?

yes they're not isolated. I take it your LEDs are touchable then.

not touchable, but the LED strip (unusually all in series) is only
separated from the aluminium case by a strip of some tape, the LED part
is 3m distant from the driver, with just two single insulated cables for
+ and - to it, no earth available ...

The other thought is to replace the LED strip with more conventional 12V
LED strip that's cuttable every nth-LED and use a more easily obtainable
driver.
