4: Attach the
light bulb wire
to the terminals
and solder it to
the positive wire
on the motor
as shown. The
terminals slide
onto the truck
clips.
4a: I will not
be using the
headlight por-
tion of the clear
molding. Save
the number
board inserts.
Insert the num-
ber boards in the cab unit and glue them in place with
Testors window glue. While the cab roof is still off, I
insert the lights into the holes for the headlights.

4b: Cement them
in place with CA. I
use masking tape to
hold the top lights
in place before glu-
ing them.
4c: I use Miniatronics
Corp. incandescent 12
volt 30mA 1.7mm diam-
eter lamps. I had to
slightly ream the exist-
ing holes to accommo-
date the lights.
