	TRX4 Defender LED backplates (4756690)

	I reverse engineered the stock light backplates that have
	the stickers for lights. These replace those black
	plates, but you supply LEDs to fill the holes. I used a
	cluster of 7 white 3mm LEDs for the headlights, a single
	white 5mm led for the fog/high beam upper socket, and a
	single yellow 5mm led for the turn/hazard in the front. I
	put an image of how I soldered the front LEDs in there, I
	made all of the ground (-) leads common. The (+) in the
	cluster were soldered together so one wire powers the
	cluster. The other corner marker LEDs have their own (+)
	wire connections.
	The front buckets are mirrors of each other so you would
	mirror the one headlight file in your slicer to get the
	opposite side.

	The rears are different. On the side with the reverse
	light I made a cluster of 4 white 3mm LEDs. On the rear
	fog light side there is one 5mm red LED. The tail and
	ambers are 3mm red and yellow LEDs.

	The electronics enclosure I sort of custom made to fit my
	circuit boards, I can upload if anyone is interested. I
	coded 6 modes into the module, and you select the modes
	by pressing on the left tail light. I mounted a button
	switch between the tail light and the fender well. This
	has proven to work well. I programmed a sleep mode as
	well since the power lead is always on when the battery
	is connected, but for an extra cutoff I mounted a JST
	jumper with a power switch in line so the whole thing can
	be powered down with the body on. I can also upload my
	code for the Arduino if anyone wants that.
