**** My Ride-Code 3 Falcon

[DarthMouse]

I scored this on a very good trade from a fellow scummer and must say i would have passed on this just be reading about it but it has taken itself up nicely in the collection but of course needed something extra...

So got some EL Tape and some misc parts from the misc junk bin and Voila....pimped my falcon...

The small box to the right holds the battery and on off switch and the tape will come off nicely if need be...

Man thats cool!

It would be great to integrate it and use the ERTL light switch hole for the light switch!!

This stuff is meant for moding computer cases but worked out very nice for what I needed....the pics are not the best it looks much nicer in person...

That's awesome, Mouse!

As chue mentioned, I was going to ask if you used the ERTL light switch hole that Code 3 left in this "original" model.

[Chief_Bast]

Now that's what Code 3 should have done in the first place! Great custom job you did there.

[The_Mike]

That's awesome. If I ever get around to grabbing one of these I'll have to follow your lead.

I put everything on the outside of it in my little switch box

I wanted to be able to add the mod but not mess with her original nature so all I have to do is remove the EL tape and its back to OG status...the small wire running from the EL tape end to the switch box blends in nicely with the black base so you really dont notice it unles you get up on top of it..

Although I may open her up and get the cockpit lit as my next project...
