Sam do you know if he has that cheap jcwhitney scanner or the 1 from marks custom... Or someother one?? I'd like to try this on a bumper and see how it goes... I just can't see myself buying a $500 bumper and then have it painted and sit in my street getting bruises from idiots trying to park....

He used it on his power wheels!!

Anyway I know the jc whitney is garbage but yet the replicas cost like 450 also.... A couple of years ago people would by the jcw and mod a couple of things to make better..

Theres a bunch of schematics online. Theres one on how to make a lightbar and a high power interface to use 35W halogen bulbs. You use the JC Whitney controller as to control the light.

You'll still end up having to buy the JC whitney scanner for the controller. A few bucks for relays, wiring, and materials to build the scanner. Lemme find the schematics.

You only use the plexiglass covers depending on which variation of KITT you're going for. Season 1 and 2 used the Plexicovers. Season 3 and 4 didnt have the cutouts for the turn signals. Let's do it. It's pretty easy. And if we Fcuk up, it's a good reason to buy a real KITT bumper. :lol:
