Default TRX-4 Sport Light Bar Wiring

Hey all, just finished building my TRX-4 Sport Kit and I installed the two Traxxas light bars

One on the front bumper and one on the roof rack

Does anyone have these light bars and pictures of their wiring? I have no idea where to run these wires and figured you guys had good layouts

I have the bumper one, can try to get pictures in the morning when I'm home.

So I don't know how much help this is, or isn't.
Basically I fed the bumper wiring right along the frame to the power module. I have the fenders and a few other things on mine already, so it isn't quite the same as you have probably.

Sorry for resurrecting this old tread.

In order to power the TRX4 Sport light bar, you need a 3 - 3.5V supply (a $5 DC-DC buck converter will work just fine). The led bar has two cables, one with two wires (blue+, black-) and the other one has just one wire (black +).

To get full brightness you need to hook the single wire cable to the positive out of your converter, otherwise it's on dim mode.

it draws ~200-250mAh at full brightness and 3.5V

Hope this helps other people searching for the same thing.
