It takes me about 4 hrs to do the lighting, it works out great.

Guys, I would like to post some pics on the wiring, but I don't have the model on my hand right now. I left it in Hong Kong, too bad.

By the way, the LED can be even brighter if use 9V batteries externally. I am only using 3V to power the 4 LEDs. I am oringinally thinking of putting the battery aside uder a showcase or something. But then I notice I can't pull the car out for nice photos, so I put them internally.

THAT's excatly the problem. I brought their last 5 bulbs!
The manager there told me I was the 1st guy to buy LED from them in 2 years, and they are not getting any more! Radio shack only has those BIG single ones, the size finger nails!!

genX, don't think they are the same type, cell phones one are much smaller. But would you mind telling me where in Richmond?

I was fiddling around with LED lighting once, but I didn't understand resistors, so I burned out my bag of LEDs one by one...

No, you didn´t say something wrong. Could you post some pics of your gold-plate models?
