Hi fv432 ,
I went to poound land today no luck with fibreoptics in my branch . But my mums got a small christmas tree with them on it so I pruned some of . However there not very thick , thanks for the pict . Can the LED be wired to the RX13 board were the front light comes from ( sorry Im no good at electronics ) . But I will put a on of switch ?

Thanks Andy

yes should be ok just check the voltage
off the top of my head its 4.5 volts to the headlights so a led in that range would be good

Hi fv432,

Hi,
Sorry if this sounds a sillt question does it have to be a particular HDMI cable as I got some and there was no fibreoptic cable in it ?

Thanks Andy
