The front covers of the Slot It Jaguar are held in place by one pin...they pop out pretty easily with the gentle help of a screwdriver. Once off, the inside lights were chosen to leave more space between the leads and the wheels...then, a small screwdriver will pry off the lights (CAREFULLY) and then you CAREFULLY drill the hole by hand - be careful, you don't want to scratch the purple paint in the headlight bucket...take the front LED and press in by hand then use a small screwdriver to seat it home. Bend leads to hug body.

The rear LEDs are shaped like this:

---^^---

Carefully remove the rear lights with a tiny screwdriver by scraping away the inside flakes around the pin...then push out...dremel off the stud if it did not already break and drill hole in rear body to match the size of the bump of the LED and then hold in place while applying a dab of hot glue. Once set, bend leads to hug body. Using CA glue, apply glue to body and CAREFULLY place lens on rear panel. The light has more than enough power to bleed through the lens.

The circuit board and the capacitor sit beside the driver like a dummy in the carpool lane...
