Key Features

• Purpose-Built for 1979 Chevrolet Blazer Platform — This installation kit is engineered specifically for the TRX-4 1979 Chevy Blazer, ensuring perfect fitment and alignment with your chassis. Generic solutions often require extensive modification, but this dedicated kit provides plug-and-play mounting that respects the original design of your Blazer body and frame.
• Pro Scale Advanced Lighting Control System Integration — The kit enables you to fully utilise the capabilities of the separate Pro Scale Lighting System (6591), which must be purchased separately. This system offers advanced control over multiple lighting circuits, allowing you to programme and operate headlights, tail lights, brake lights, indicator lights and more with genuine scale authenticity.
• Specialised Reverse Lights Harness — The included reverse lights harness is custom-designed for the Chevrolet Blazer platform. This dedicated wiring harness ensures that your reverse lighting integrates seamlessly with your TRX-4's drivetrain, activating only when the vehicle moves in reverse, just like a real automobile. This level of detail demonstrates Traxxas's commitment to scale accuracy.
• Complete Mounting Solution — The installation kit includes precision-engineered mounting brackets and hardware specifically designed for the Blazer body and chassis geometry. These mounts ensure that all lighting components remain secure during off-road driving, high-speed runs and challenging terrain, eliminating rattle and vibration that could damage delicate LED assemblies.
• Additional LED Lights Included — Beyond the basic reverse lights harness, this kit includes additional amber and reverse light components that expand your lighting capability beyond what comes with the base Pro Scale Lighting System. This means you can achieve even more authentic scale lighting patterns for a truly professional appearance.
• Hardware and Installation Components — Every necessary fastener, connector, cable tie and mounting bracket is included in the box. You won't need to source additional hardware from third parties—everything required for complete installation is provided, making this a true all-in-one solution.
• Professional-Grade Scale Realism — This system represents the highest standard of scale authenticity available for TRX-4 vehicles. Serious RC modellers, competition drivers and scale enthusiasts recognise that authentic lighting is the difference between a good-looking RC vehicle and a genuinely impressive scale replica.

Technical Performance

The Pro Scale Advanced Lighting Control System Installation Kit TRX8082 is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of serious RC scale enthusiasts.

The kit is designed to work seamlessly with the TRX-4 1979 Chevrolet Blazer platform, accommodating the specific dimensions and structural points of this classic truck body. The electrical connectors are weatherproofed to protect against moisture and dirt ingress, maintaining reliable operation even after wet weather driving or washing. Installation complexity is moderate—suitable for builders with intermediate RC experience and an understanding of basic wiring principles. The complete system, when combined with the Pro Scale Lighting System, provides professional-grade control over multiple lighting circuits simultaneously.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the difference between the Pro Scale Lighting System and this installation kit? — The Pro Scale Lighting System (6591) is the main control module that manages all lighting circuits and provides the brains of the system. This installation kit (TRX8082) is the physical mounting and wiring infrastructure specifically designed for the 1979 Chevrolet Blazer platform. You need both components working together to achieve full functionality—the kit cannot operate independently of the Pro Scale Lighting System.
• Is this installation kit compatible with other TRX-4 models? — No, this kit (TRX8082) is specifically engineered for the TRX-4 1979 Chevrolet Blazer. Different TRX-4 platforms (Mercedes-Benz, Land Rover, Ford Bronco, etc.) require different installation kits because their body shapes, chassis mounting points and wiring paths vary significantly. Always verify you are purchasing the correct kit for your specific model.
• Do I need any soldering or electrical modifications to my TRX-4? — The kit is designed to integrate with your existing TRX-4 electronics with minimal modification. However, some intermediate wiring knowledge is beneficial. If you're uncomfortable working with RC electronics, consider having your local RC model shop in the UK install the system for you.
• Will this kit work with the factory-installed lights on my Blazer? — This kit is designed for TRX-4 1979 Chevrolet Blazers that already have the base Pro Scale Lighting System installed. If your Blazer does not have any lighting system, you will need to purchase the separate LED Light Kit (8038X) instead of this installation kit.
• What makes the reverse lights harness special? — The reverse lights harness is custom-engineered to connect directly to your TRX-4's receiver or ESC, allowing it to sense when the vehicle is in reverse and activate the reverse lighting accordingly. This creates authentic automotive-style lighting behaviour, where reverse lights only illuminate when the vehicle actually reverses—a hallmark of true scale authenticity.
• How difficult is the installation process? — Installation requires intermediate RC building skills. The kit includes detailed instructions and all necessary hardware, but you'll need to understand basic connector types, wire routing through the chassis, and proper mounting bracket alignment. Plan for 1-2 hours of careful work, and don't rush—proper installation ensures reliable operation during your RC adventures.
• Is this suitable for beginners? — This installation kit is best suited to intermediate and advanced RC enthusiasts who have experience working with RC electronics and wiring. If you're new to the hobby, we recommend starting with a fully assembled TRX-4 and considering professional installation of the lighting system, or consulting with experienced builders at your local RC model shop.
• Can I use this kit with other Pro Scale Lighting components? — Yes, the installation kit is designed to work as part of the broader Pro Scale Lighting ecosystem for TRX-4 vehicles. It integrates specifically with the Pro Scale Lighting System (6591) and supports additional amber and reverse light components that expand your customisation options.
