<p>The motor leads arent wires, they are clips, and I really dont feel like cutting them, soldering wires to them, heat shrink tubing them, then soldering the wires to the 1/16" diameter hole where the metal clip went. Also swapping the motor leads wont fix the lighting problem. The decoder is designed to go in an SD70. It only fits in one way and I didnt see the need to desolder the pre-installed LEDs, add wires so that I can switch them from the front to the back, and the figure out how to attach them to the light tubes.</p> <p>Also I put an adhesive label under the fuel tank which lists the locomotive address and CVs that arent set to defaults.</p>
