Ideally you would need two photographs of exactly the same position.  One with them on and one without.  You will then need to merge the two into an animated gif file, so one photo is replaced the other on either a timed loop or unlimited loop.

Various software like Adobe Photoshop and Paintshop Pro will do the job.  MS Paint will not.

That's the dull and boring way, just editing in the fake lights.  :wink:

Glad it's ok for you.

It's a shame Disco lights aren't really that bright.

I'm still toying with the idea of going back to Range rover bits at the front; I do not like that  conversion that uses the Series round lights.

I did photoshop the front of my Disco just to see what it would look like and it's passable.
