Hello guys, hope you all had a great Valentines day.
Anyways, I got a new HL Tiger and would like to convert it into a Late version Tiger. One question is how to get the head lights of and add the one light to the front. Also I found a zemmerit kit on RCTankWarfare.com that looks good, but would like to know if anyone has used it before. Thanks for any help in advance and have a great weekend.

Hi Slaychild and welcome to the forum . I just removed the two front lights the bought a metal upgrade single front mounted light , fitted this to the front of the HL tank then wired it up with the original main wire.
As for zimmerit I use the milliput to part compound . To form the zimmerit I use a sloted screw driver .
As you look into the Tiger builds on here you will see theres a few corrections and improvments to be made to the HL Tiger.

Sorry didnt read your post correctly . I first disconected the wires from the front two lights then removed them by cutting them with a sharp knife . the holes they left I just filled with milliput . Then I used the main wireing to wire to a new front head light . I did fit a on / off switch that I located near the opened front hatch .

thanks littletankman for the reply! Where did you get the milliput? I'm in the US and hope I can find it here.
