    I like how those headlights reflect from the street surface.

    I too like all the lights and the xmas theme. The tractor brake lights look really good as well as the headlights. But the truck driver in me says that at the angle he is turning...

    He definitely missed that turn. Good thing there's a traffic officer handy, as this will require a back up move and wider swing.

    front and rear lights are 0603 led.

    lights in the trailer are actually just holes. no fibre optics or similar. then a few rather powerful led's glued on the floor of the trailer lighting up the inside. that's all.
