Hi there. I FINALLY opened the box from Betson with the Glowing LED Eyes for the Terminator 2 Topper. BUT...it's only a metal ring and red LED's with wires coming out of them! How the hell do you make them work? What do I need? I think a few people here got that topper. Help meeeee. Help meeee! Thanks!

Wish I could help buy mine went in the closet the day after it arrived and hasn't been out since. Just don't have the clearance for it.

I would think you could just wire them to some GI or something. Maybe test with alligator clips? Should be the same voltage, right?

It connects to your driver board in two spots. You can view the install instructions in the last picture of the topper auction on eBay here: ebay.com link: ws

If tgd auction is gone then just search for "terminator 2 topper" in eBay and look.

Thanks! BUT...I have a ledge over my machines and can't use it as a topper. I was going to just mount it to the wall. Is there a way to hook those eyes up to a power source of some kind? Battery or plug....

If they are LED's you can just wire them up to a battery pack this link kinda explains how to wire them using any voltage you want. http://ledz.com/?p=zz.led.resistor.calculator you'll have to figure out an on off switch though
