I know theyre just simple head and tail lights, but I find it turned out really good. It's powered by 2 AA's and a switch that I turn on manually. They're really bright, It may not show in the pictures, especially the tails, but they are, maybe I should take some in a darker room.. Next step is the roll bar.. Problem is I have no clue how to route the wires without making it look ugly...





And you can also see my new rims/tires, which come from a Nitro MT that I sold.. I like it much better witht he 2.2's..

when I did the roll bar light on a jugg body I ran 24 gauge wire under the roll bar (in the gaps) and through one of the holes.

my secret was the combinations of series and parallel wiring at each LED element so I only had to run one wire through the body

I also found that liquid electrical tape or rubber cement works good to insulate the connections on the led's

Stage 2 lighting complete! I kind of went with an unconventional method. It's not as scale, but it was easy and I find it looks clean. I just bent the terminals of each led to reach the next one, then ran 2 wires down the underside of the rollbar. Works well! Can't wait to drive it now..

Light bar on!


Full Boar!


You can see the rear lights better since its not as bright in the room..


How I wired the light bar


I like it! What do y'all think?
