  1. hot wax is good as it melts and becomes a liquid that can be poured into and around any components.
  2. Another good thing to use are condoms, as they got a large opening or wax, as you can melt it and pour it into any small spaces behind components.
  3. 1 thing he didnt mention is not too hold the iron on the wire too long, it causes the insulation to melt around the wire. And if you can use lead free solder.
  4. only three leds lit and moving all leds lit the back of the leds the pcb i built to get them to move (apologies for the poor quality but im an electrical engineer not a photographer )
  5. If you buy the number of leds you need, connect them to a 470 ohm resistor each then connect them to a power supply ie PP9 Battery via a micro switch, activated by your brake servo moving, youll get the same effect. Thats what I did and they work fine....I even decided to run a series of leds across the front of my hummer body just like knight rider and it looks pretty funky in the dark!! rofl
  6. you definately wanna use a cover tho as the ali will get tarnished after a while of use and abuse that youll no doubtly do! id use warmed up yacht varnish, spray laquer or somat, the warming ensures a nice and smooth finish and the polishy jobby in the dremel kit is applied to a polishing disk doohicky.
  7. chrs dude...gonna try to get a couple others aswell
