For the conversion you need a model car, a conversion kit with 2 red and 2 white LEDs with series resistor, a felt pen, tweezers, superglue and various tools.

With a lot of feeling, the car is dismantled into its individual parts. Wheels, axles, seats and windows are carefully removed and put to one side.

To prevent the light-emitting diodes from shining through the bodywork later on, paint the area around the headlights on the inside with a large area of black felt-tip pen or paint. img_5264.jpg

The area of the rear lights is also painted black from the inside.

Now you can install the white diodes for the headlights. Use super glue for this. Put a drop of glue behind the plastic of the headlight and glue the LEDs from the inside.

It is advisable to connect the voltage to the diodes in the process. One immediately recognises an accidental interruption of the circuit during construction. With a little dexterity, this can be done relatively quickly. Then let the superglue dry well. The LEDs for the rear lights are also attached from the inside using superglue.

Use a drill to drill 2 holes in the floor of the vehicle. There the balue and the red connecting wire is pushed through from the inside. Now reassemble the car. img_5272.jpg

Again, it is recommended to do this when the LEDs are lit, and to work with the utmost caution.

You should lay the enamelled copper wires and the series resistor inside so that nothing can be seen from the outside and the wires are not pinched.

Now carefully glue the base back under the body using superglue and secure the connecting wires to the base using a drop of superglue for strain relief.

You can see whether you have worked carefully .......................... if you darken the light a little.
