Default RE: RC LED lights

When I had headlights on my electic buggy I just stuck them to the shock tower. But I dont where youd put tail-lights at, maybe on the rear shock tower but the wing will probobly hide them.

As for how to do it.

Just go to radio shack and pick up the following items.

Youll also need some wire, if you dont have any then [link=http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CT LG%5F011%5F010%5F003%5F000&product%5Fid=278%2D1221]get this[/link].

If you decide to make your own light setup, let me know and ill tell you how to wire it all up.
