Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these lenses for actual lights?

No, these are clear, moulded plastic lenses designed for cosmetic enhancement and realism. They do not contain LEDs or light up on their own.

Do I need special tools to install these?

Typically, no. Basic hobby tools like a small screwdriver or hobby knife might be helpful for removing old lenses, but installation often just requires gentle pressure or basic hobby adhesive.

Can I paint these lenses?

Yes, you can paint the *inside* of the lenses with clear or translucent paints suitable for plastics to simulate different light colours. Avoid painting the exterior, as it can reduce clarity.

What kind of glue should I use if needed?

A small amount of cyanoacrylate (CA) glue or a specialized RC plastic cement is generally suitable. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and use sparingly.

Will these fit other FTX models?

These lenses are specifically designed for the FTX Tracker. Compatibility with other models is not guaranteed and would depend on identical body shell designs.

How durable are these lenses?

They are made from durable moulded plastic intended for RC vehicle use. However, like any plastic part on an RC car, they can be damaged in significant impacts.

Troubleshooting

Lenses don't fit correctly

Ensure you have the correct part number (FTX10332) for your FTX Tracker model. Verify that no debris is obstructing the mounting points on the body shell.

Lenses appear cloudy or scratched

Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. If scratches are deep, replacement may be necessary.

Lenses won't stay attached

Check the original mounting mechanism. If clipping is loose, consider using a small amount of RC-specific plastic adhesive. Ensure the adhesive is fully cured before use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: These lenses are specifically designed for the FTX Tracker model (MPN: FTX10332).

Setup: Installation typically involves removing the old light lenses and carefully fitting the new ones into place. Depending on your specific Tracker body shell, they may clip in, require a small amount of plastic-safe adhesive (like CA glue or UHU), or be secured by screws if applicable to the original design. Always refer to your FTX Tracker's original manual for specific body shell attachment methods.

Care: Clean the lenses gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can scratch or cloud the plastic. For best results, use a mild soap and water solution and dry with a microfiber cloth.
