Scale Navigation and Landing Light Lenses Cessna 182
I am building a Top Flite Cessna 182 Kit. I have purchased a LED lighting kit that comes complete with strobes, beacons, navigation and landing lights. I need to fabricate the mounting and lens covers for the landing and navigation lights. I was hoping i could get some ideas to help me start.
I have attached a picture of the left wing where the landing light and the Red navigation light is mounted.
Any Ideas would be great. I am new to scale building and don't have many tricks up my sleeve.

As for the landing lights on my L-19 I used reflectors from AAA size mini mag flashlights and made the window from plastic softened with a heat gun and formed around the leading edge of the wing. As for the nav light covers find someone in your club who does vacuum forming. Have attached a picture of the landing lights.
