Did it to the scx10 after i had to DIY some light buckets. the parts i used come in the kit and i think they are for mounting a different body than the honcho. worked out good. a little issue i have run into going forward turns the lights on just a small amount. i'm not sure exactly what is doing this but i'm thinking maybe the resistor or could be the motor i'm using because it's just a stock can and it has resistors on it that connect the poss and neg together. so i'm thinking might be some current going through and causing it but i'll know more after some testing.


now to add it to the drift car and also going to add a orange LED to the tail pipe but connect it the right way so it lights up when going forward.
give it a try and thanks for looking.
