blackbeard Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 where can you get the light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olsbooks Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Very nice. Are you fabricating an LED controller or was part of the light bar kit? This thing is going to be a beast! On the LED's Henry, check Radio Shack if you are up for some simple soldering. They are getting out of this kind of stuff more and more nationwide (sadly). I picked up a large "kit" of LED's (about 20 or so) of various sizes/colors for $5. Ditto for microswitches. The other thing is check Dollar General and cheapo type stores for leftover LED Christmas light strings and little prelit "desktop trees". Usually a buck or less if they still have them. Granted they will likely be all one color (clear) but are usually pefect for headlights or interior lights. Sometimes these strings can difficult to tell the voltage required and polarity. Just try series connecting AAA batteries. Try one battery, then reverse the wires. Then two batts in series and reverse wires, then three....and so on. You might pop one LED in the process of figuring it out, but at this price, so what?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbill Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 that is COOL!!!!!! will be needing part numbers and directions for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodwin3224 Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) Haha its very simple. I made my light bars up in about 15 minutes. I've been able to hide the wires in the rotator and bed which took a little longer. But now its time to feed them and the controller into the sleeper Edited February 8, 2014 by goodwin3224 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodwin3224 Posted February 8, 2014 Author Share Posted February 8, 2014 (edited) i was able to hide 90 % of the wires by routing them down through the rotator (still rotates almost a full rotation) all i have left to do at that point to hide them is to build a few pannels.
