I had a old radio shack Nikko hummer 4X4 for like 20 years, during the covid lock down, I dug it out and was on amazon looking for batteries for it, well about 200 dollars or so later this is what I have now, It's a pro line body, added the head lights and tail lights, roof rack lights, I have the lights that go in them but until I can figure out how to hook up a secondary power source I left them out, it was very fun to build and figure out how to mount everything on it, it was definitely a learning process, i also have a radio shack Nikki Tremor monster truck 2 wheel drive that i have a body coming for to a 1970 dodge body from pro line, ohhhh boy more money to spend on that, but I won't get as crazy as i did on this one, I hope?????

You could do something like this under the body: https://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/gea1361.htm for the lights. A 9V connected to the lights with a switch also works.
 
Hey thanks

Hey Thanks, I am looking into something like that, I have 9 different light I would need to hook up, I'm in no big hurry mild of winter here, today was -10 out and my truck isn't water proof, so no snow driving lol, but I will check it out thanks again.
