Hello all,, time for an update. I installed the all weather curtain for the fireman and finished up the weathering on the backhead. The curtain is made from a tea bag and thread rolled up and glued in place with CA glue.
Now that I know the Led attached to the plastic filter, resistor, pick up arraignment works. I neatened it up and replaced the wire with something a little more flexible. This still left some trouble with the glue not holding well to the plastic lens, I broke it off a few times while working on the frame. My solution for this was good old J B weld.
After the J B weld.
And it still works.
The underside all weathered up.
Now It's
Tender Tuesday
