Default Light bars

Hey. New to the rc game. Bought a gen 7 pro, seems good for the price. Been adding some custom lighting here and there, anyone ever build their own light bars for them? I tried out a few different attempts, and have gotten one that works fairly well. Any info on good lighting, and where to buy, would be a great help. I have some pictures. But cannot add them

I built my own light bar for my Gen7 Sport. It doesn't attach to the roof rack that comes on the Pro, but if you wanted to mount it to the body it should work perfectly:

Okay. Thanks guys. I've been doing some of my own, ruining lots of lights and stuff figuring out the positive and negative. Pretty much got that down, just now to know exactly what resistors to use and the best post to purchase the led lights, I ordered on ebay
