Default My FG MT led light set up

I don't know if i done this the right way or the wrong way , or if there was a easier way , but i did it my way and im pretty happy with how it turned out . I made them from those small led torches you can find anywhere that sell really cheap , i then replicated the battery holder configuration from the torch they came from using three energizer AA 2500mah re chargeables and made a double capacity hump pack , and its working beautifull i even put in an on off switch .

Have you tried bicycle safety leds? they are cheap and very strong. ... no wires involve. they have different type of shape and can operate different ways ie blinking etc

I think you have done it the right wayLooks very nice,and nice job with the installation.I have done some similar to this on my Marder with a Ford Focus body by using some cheap LED-torches.

Yes, I agree with Lars, you did set them up right and they do look great. I would not have done it any differently.

Also, I like how you positioned the switch on the door; makes for very easy access to turn them on and off.

yes the switch is my favorite part too , when the shell is on the truck all i have to do is turn it on from the outside window area, lol sometimes i outdo myself and come up with making some good work when i feel like it . the lights really light up the night with the powerfull 2500mah compared to when they were using aaa batteries .
