Installation, Finishing touches 

 

• 

The picture below shows the finished installation.  A wire nut (not supplied) was used to 
connect a shortened “Antenna” connection to a wire hot melt glued in the shell roof.  This 
allows the Shell to be removed easily, since the lighting can be removed by unplugging 
the 3-pin lamp connector. 

 
 

 

 

 

R2LC Installation 

 

• 

Double check all wiring, then install the R2LC receiver board onto the Cruise 
Commander Lite board.  Use 

caution

 not to miss by one pin pair to either side, as this 

will certainly damage the components on both cards.
