Cool shot from the bottom! The fan guards give a funky effect.
This shot didn't work out as well as I had hoped. This view from the top leads you to believe that the lights are not that well spread out. They actually are and it gives a look that is different from what I was planning for, but is equally as good..
Back to the truck. Now that the body is painted it is time to do some of the detail work. The first thing that I wanted to do was get rid of the sunroof and add a Crystalfontz LCD display panel, so that I can view all of the information from the motherboard.
This was the test fit earlier. From the bottom all the clearances worked, so all is good!
Here is the test run of the LCD, looks like it is working fine. by this point, I could see that everything was coming together!
Now it is time to wire all of the LEDs. This truck came with only a few working lights and I wanted them all working, including the clearance light, the marker lights, the headlights and the taillights.
This shows the clearance lights in the front.
I have the rear marker lights as well as the tail lights all wired. I had to make new holes for the rear markers, as only the two on the outside worked.
The marker light and the side markers on the front had to be mounted. I also had to change the headlights because the lights that it came with were incandescent. I changed them all to LED, and they will all be wired to the power supply and will light up when the truck is turned on.
