|  Scale radio antenna
The nozzle from a bic lighter and a paperclip or similar size wire inserted into an appropriately sized hole drilled in the body with a drop of superglue on the tip makes an excellent antenna  Little bent now but you get the idea Last edited by scalemadness; 09-08-2015 at 10:01 PM. |

The body of an empty lighter can also be made into a muffler depending on the size of your rig and the long small spring from the same lighter makes a good mount for a sprung cb antenna

LOL, antennas don't work right unless they're bent. Great idea! X2 on using it.

Not going to lie, when I first seen the image I thought you had cut a resistor in half and glued it to the hood. This works too, be more sturdy than a resistor.
