LED Lighting Module Installation (Fig. 1) (#8898 Kit only):
1. Install the LED lighting
module (A) on the left
chassis floor pan. Secure
with the 2.5x15mm cap
screws (2).
2. Remove the screws from the
receiver box cover and wire
clamp; remove the cover and
clamp (B).
3. Remove the two 3x10mm
countersunk cap screws
from the battery tray (C).
4. Lift up the battery tray and
route the red wire (male
connector) from the LED
lighting module to the right
side of the chassis, between
the two T-Lock servos,
and through the hole in
the receiver box. Plug the
connector into channel 1 of
the receiver (D). Note: The
connector can be plugged
into any non-telemetry
channel on the TQi receiver.
5. Apply an additional bead of
silicone grease (Traxxas part
#1647, sold separately) to
the wire clamp. The grease will improve sealing. Reinstall the clamp and screws.
6. Make sure the o-ring is properly seated into the groove in the receiver box so that
the cover will not pinch it or damage it in any way.
7. Install the cover and screws. Inspect the cover to make sure the o-ring seal is not
visible.
8. Reinstall the screws in the battery tray.
9. Connect the black wire (red female connector) from the LED lighting module to
the red wire (male connector) exiting the XL-5 HV electronic speed control.
LED Headlight Installation (Fig. 11)
1. Remove the 2.6x8mm button-head cap screws (E) (8) to remove the front grille
mount (F) and the front grille (G) from the body (see Assembly Diagram, Fig. 11).
Remove the 1.6x5mm button-head screws (H) (2) from each headlight lens (I) and
remove the assemblies from the front grille mount. Retain and reuse the plastic
headlight lens, reflectors, reflector lens, and all hardware.
2. Install the circuit boards (J)
onto the grille mount. Route
the harness connecting the
two circuit boards through
the wire retainers on the front
of the mount. Route the wire
loops and power wires in the
small slot and over the top of
the mount as shown (Fig. 2).
3. Install the reflector lens and chrome reflectors
(2 each) onto the circuit boards (Fig. 3). Note:
The reflectors/lens must be installed correctly
to sit flat against the circuit boards. Align the
keying features (pegs on the chrome reflectors
and clear lens) with holes in the circuit boards
and the grille mount.
4. Install the headlight lens over the chrome
reflectors and onto the circuit boards
(Fig. 4). Note: There are notches on the sides of
the plastic headlight lens for clearance of the
wires from the circuit boards.
5. Secure the headlight lens to the grille mount
with the 1.6x5mm button-head screws (4)
removed during disassembly.
6. Reinstall the front grille mount and front grille
on the body using the 2.6x8mm button-head
cap screws (8) removed during disassembly.
7. Remove the 2.6x8mm button-head cap screws
(K) from the turn signal lens and housings on
the vehicle hood (L) and remove the blank LEDs
from the receptacles. Reinstall the lens and
housings, and then snap the LED turn signal
lights into the receptacles.
8. Snap the LED side marker lights into the
receptacles near each front side door.
Note: Bend the wire leads carefully to assist with
wire routing and for better fitment against the
vehicle body (Fig. 5).
LED Tail Light Installation (Fig. 11)
Note: The tail light harness (M) has long wires for ease of installation. Install the side
of the harness with the connector on the left side (driver side) of the vehicle body.
1. Snap the tail light LEDs into the tail light receptacles. Bend the wire leads to lie flat
against the body and away from the inner fenders (Fig. 6).
2. Use the included zip ties to secure the wiring to the body in the locations
provided. If necessary, coil and secure any excess wire.
LED Roof Visor Light Installation (Fig. 11)
1. Remove the 2.6x6mm button-head cap screws (N) (3) from the roof visor retainer
(O). Remove the roof visor (P) and the retainer from the body (see Assembly
Diagram, Fig. 11).
