Custom Light Sets x 2

First set.

Ultra violate under-glow, and fog lights, with supper bright tail pipe light. The 2 switches on the circuit board turn off the under-glow, and tail pipe light to save battery power when racing. The tail pipe light is also connected to the head lights so that it brightens when you pull the trigger.

The fog and tail lights are connected with plugs so they can be removed or changed out.

I haven’t tried it yet but since all components are on the bottom of the board there should be enough room for a 5 cell mod.

A Very Small Set

This one is small enough to allow almost any mod but still has fog and tail-pipe lights that can be removed or changed out.

I made them for friends and family, but I do have a few extra circuit boards so I was thinking about putting a set on ebay.

What color under-glow would be best? Ultra-violate (purple), sea-green (my favorite for a white Supra), blue, orange, yellow, or red.

And fog lights? White, blue, or ultra-violate.

Hey,
Not sosure on the colors for the underglow. For me it depends on the color of the car. As for the head and fog lights I like white for the head lights and blue for the fog lights. I would probably be interested in a set or to know how you made them. Thanks Later

Why not let the buyer on ebay decide? Just say in the auction, your choice of:______, ______, etc. Then have them email you with what they want and put in those LEDs.

New Version

Funny you should mention a Supra I just completed my latest version for this one. It has slightly different plugs for the tailpipe and fog lights, and I still haven’t decided what color to use and where to drill the holes for the fog lights. The picture doesn’t show the under-glow light color very well they are a sea green (blue green) color and quite bright, unfortunately they are only available in 5mm so I can’t use the same color for the fog lights. I’ve also been thinking about using a super bright orange or red light instead of blue in the tailpipe.

Howdy,
Another question I have is where did you get the plugs for your lights. I make light kits for bigger R/C vehicals, and can't find a plug small enough to suit me. Those look like they would work great. You can check out my light kits on my site. They are not in production yet but I have a few kits. Thanks. Later

I am actually still looking for the manufacture. I have about 100 plugs that I found last Thanksgiving while visiting my brother in Portland. The company his X worked for went out of business, when I mentioned that I wanted a good used oscilloscope she took me to the auction/clearinghouse that was selling off all their assets. No O-scope but I did find the connectors. Unfortunately all the connectors and pins were in numbered storage bins, no manufacture, no part numbers, and worse yet no crimping tools, just bin numbers. I posted the same question a couple of months ago and was told they were HRS DF13 series connectors which are available from most online electronics parts suppliers. I ordered one that didn't work but the crimping tool did. So my problem was solved. If you are unfamiliar with this type of connector I should warn you that you have to have a crimping tool for the exact size and type of pin you are using and even prototyping/repair tools which are not recommended for continuous use will cost you $100 to $200. The HRS DF13 or 14 series conectors would be great if you are just looking for as similar type.
