Hi!i am looking for help to install led lights on my truck.. is there a simple way to do the wiring so i dont have wires all over the place.. i remember seeing something on this forum about that... someone used a 3v coin battery to power his leds... i tried to find to post i saw this but i cant find it anymore.. can anyone help me please?

I've got neon lights on the underside of the body on my XL. Its just 9 lights wired together going off of a disposable 9v battery. There's a little switch on the back of the body to turn them on and off.

do you use any resistor?

Don't know, I bought the body with them already on it. I can post pics of it tomorrow. My only camera, right now, is my Ipod Touch and it doesn't take very good pics at night.

Assuming they are 3V LEDs you could wire 2 in series with a 100 ohm or so resistor to your RX so you don't require exra stuff to power it
I've hooked 6 up to my one RC this way (3 sets of 2 in parallel)

could you post a picture of your wiring set up?? id like to see what it look like, it would help me figure out how to do mine. thank you

Here ya go this is how I have my headlights wired on my on-road sorry about the dirt, and grass.
I use 2 3V LED's, a 100 Ohm resistor. The stuff on them is shoe goo to hold them in place.
I used a JST plug(I think that is the name of that connector) on mine so I can disconnect it easier, and have a servo plug going to the RX itself. But if your RX is easily accessible you can skip that plug mine wasn't so.

The other RC I got with 6 LEDs a pic wouldn't help due to how I ran the wiring its kinda hard to make out what I did in pics on it

thank you! i just bought a few resistor on ebay... i should be able to do the wiring soon.
