Default If You Love The HL KV-1, But Hate The......

Do you hate the HL signature lights Like I do?

Did you invest in the Tamiya KV-1 headlight lens cover, only to find out the Tamiya head lamp is smaller in diameter than the HL's KV-1 headlight?

Don't want to shell out extra money for the Tamiya sprue that has the headlight just to make use of the lens cover that didn't fit HL's?

Tired of waiting for after marketmanufacturesto make the single most important upgrade for the HL KV-1?

^^^ Are you puzzled why they haven't yet?^^^ lol

Well look no further my friends!

Pick yourself up this little kit and there you have it!

I got this in last week for my Leopard, hoping the rectangular lights would work should I convert it to the Leopard EX or Danish version. It'll take a bit of work to make it appropriate, but should do just fine. Anyway, there at least is a secondary use for it since it can be used for the KV-1 too!
They also make them in chrome. That probably would work better than the black ones I linked to, since you won't have to paint the inside silver and would be by far more reflective.

Here's some photos of it temporarily attached.

The one with the guard over the headlights was just for HA, HA's!
