I got an awesome light kit from http://www.billscustomrclighting.com/
He's a member on another forum I visit. I talked to him on the phone the other day and ended up just chatting for a while about RC's. He's excellent to deal with, the quality of his work is top notch and guarantees his work for like 30 days. He's such an awesome guy he'll probably help you out even after the 30 days are up.
If you're looking for some lights for your RC's, I suggest you check out Bill's site.
He can pretty much make anything you want.
Installing the lights only took me like 4 or 5 hours start to pics. That includes making sure the holes are even, angled right and just big enough; finding a hot glue gun and glue sticks then waiting for it to heat up; making sure each light only stuck out so far and pointed straight then waiting for the glue to cool.
We'll see how long it takes for me to type this and post the right pics.
It was a fairly slow process for me cuz I have never done a light kit before.
The next one should go a little quicker cuz I know what to expect now.
You'll have to bear with some blurry pics, it's hard to hold a camera still for prolonged exposure.
I did manage to get a few clean pics tho.
First off, Bill's lights are awesome. Excellent quality and very bright.
The two lights on the outside are shown without the bezels, which are metal and would look great if your application permits them.
The Honda S2000 body is too curvy and I couldn't use them.
Here is the final result, body-on pics...
^ One taillight is off a little but I dunno if there's much I can do about it now. It's not that bad, I can live with it (for now).
I don't think adjusting it is an option without re-gluing it, which would be a little time consuming with the amount of glue I already put on there.
I might tint the windows and then spray-paint the glue black or tape up the lights a little so they're not shining all through the body.
Tho it does look kinda cool, almost like underglow.
