Anyone with good ideas about car lighting you can post them here,

I put head lights and tail lights on my car and it came out awsome, they are L.E.D's made for real cars so they are really bright, all I did was go to Pepboys and they sell L.E.D kits for real cars they only cost 10 bucks for 2, they come in red or blue, all you have to do is get them and take them out of their screw housings and drill holes in the body where the lights should be, then just pop them in, and then line up the wiring and soder them together than tape it in the inside of the body, then get a nitro car power switch and on one side solder it in the light circuit and then solder a 9volt batter plug onto the other side of the switch then just servo tape a 9volt battery in your car somewhere, it doesn't way too much, but the lights are really bright, u can see them in mid day time,

:eek:

i've seen the RCneons before, these lights i got could make you go blind they are so bright, it's because they are made for real cars. and they can handle 12volts

you can look, im not sure, but your best bet is to try pepboys, you can ask them for L.E.D's or something else like that, they are made by American Auto Accessories. it says High Powered projection micro lights. come in a blue box with alot of wire.

what did he do to it?, anyway, i just wanna say that this is a really cheap way to get lights for your car, its good to have them if u wanna do night time racing or just cruise up and down the street at night time you would want them so that your car doesn't get ran over,,
