Hi All,
I want to add a landing light to my aluminum wing leading edge. What's the best way to do it? I've thought about making a female mold (using fiberglass) over the LE to get the shape before cutting the opening.

Would I then need to make a male mold from the female? It would obviously need to be reduced in size by the thickness of the plexiglas.

Then I need to heat the plexi. Is it necessary to make a vacuum box, or can it just be heated and laid over the mold? What thickness plexi works best? How hot does it need to be for forming?

Lots of questions, but I'm thinking lots of people have done this before. I searched for a past discussion or YouTube video but struck out.

Tentatively planning to use the Flyleds 4 light landing/taxi kit.
Thanks!
