Rear Lights
 
Hi All

Below is my first custom rear light assemblies
made from 6mm Aluminium, polished.
They take the std Tamiya lenses (or I can do it with 5mm holes only if you like the round light look, can come with mudflap mounts or not.
mounts to the chassis with two screws from the inside of the rail, M3 holes tapped ready for you to mount.
Available in two or three lights per side at $20AUD/Pair
PM me if interested.

I can also make a solid bar as below with either square lenses or just the LED's for that round light look, there are some nice bases that would look good with this available on the net.

Hi Cabs, when I have made one I will show it

What I do is draw up what I think will work, these are the CAD pictures I post, then I make one when somebody wants one, if its never been made before I will not take any money until I have made it, that way I know I can make it from what I have drawn.

If you are interested just PM me with your ideas and I'll see what I can do.

cheers
Paul

Update:

two piece rear lights, mounted to the chassis rails with two screws from the inside.

The square ones are the Tamiya Kit Lenses, the round ones are to suit the LED holders from "True Scale" in either 3mm or 5mm holder size (5mm shown)

All Bumpers are 180mm wide (including chassis for the two piece) 20mm high and 8mm thick. all can be done with or without mudflap holder.

One piece version mounts to original bumper but with hidden screws, this one is also available in round or square, and all can be 2,3,4 or 5 lights, if I can fit them in I can make as many as you want.

Those look great and work great for trailers as well

Paul,

How are you wiring the lights in your bumpers? Are the wires hidden internally or along the back side? Can you show a pic of what this looks like on your logger?

Thanks,
Chris

Re: Rear Lights
 
Hi Chris
My logger only has 6mm thick light bars so the wires run along the back, on the new 8mm ones I am looking at running a 3mm wide by 3mm deep channel at the back so you can run the wires in this and then fill with hot glue or..........

I will post a picture when I have done one.

Cheers
Paul
