basically you take your stereo wire and

basically you take your stereo wire and split it down the middle and this length

split it down the middle and this length

split it down the middle and this length across mine was three inches but a might

across mine was three inches but a might

across mine was three inches but a might vary depending on yourself and you take

vary depending on yourself and you take

vary depending on yourself and you take your positive right here connect it to

your positive right here connect it to

your positive right here connect it to the negative here and then you’ll have a

the negative here and then you’ll have a

the negative here and then you’ll have a positive here and a negative here so

positive here and a negative here so

positive here and a negative here so then you’ll just thread this back

then you’ll just thread this back

then you’ll just thread this back through this will go to your controller

time into it and this works basically so

time into it and this works basically so I have a momentary push-button switch

I have a momentary push-button switch

I have a momentary push-button switch two zip ties a 9-volt battery clip and

two zip ties a 9-volt battery clip and

two zip ties a 9-volt battery clip and just some electrical tape to hold stuff

just some electrical tape to hold stuff

just some electrical tape to hold stuff together now what you have to do is

together now what you have to do is

together now what you have to do is you’ll see here your black and white

you’ll see here your black and white

you’ll see here your black and white wire and it doesn’t really matter

wire and it doesn’t really matter

wire and it doesn’t really matter there’s some trial and error and this

there’s some trial and error and this

there’s some trial and error and this took me a while to get everything

took me a while to get everything

took me a while to get everything working but basically your black wire

working but basically your black wire

working but basically your black wire should be connected to one end of the

should be connected to one end of the

should be connected to one end of the momentary push-button switch and then

momentary push-button switch and then

momentary push-button switch and then your white wire should be connected to

your white wire should be connected to

your white wire should be connected to the stereo cable which runs back to your

the stereo cable which runs back to your

the stereo cable which runs back to your LED display or LED lights and it’s

LED display or LED lights and it’s

LED display or LED lights and it’s really simple just keep everything

really simple just keep everything

really simple just keep everything together with the zip ties and you just

together with the zip ties and you just

together with the zip ties and you just thread this into your pocket and

thread this into your pocket and

thread this into your pocket and depending on how tall you are you’ll

depending on how tall you are you’ll

depending on how tall you are you’ll want to measure out distance from

want to measure out distance from

want to measure out distance from wearing the mask with thee from the eye

wearing the mask with thee from the eye

wearing the mask with thee from the eye sockets to your pocket or wherever you

sockets to your pocket or wherever you

sockets to your pocket or wherever you feel you want this switch to be and then

feel you want this switch to be and then

feel you want this switch to be and then you just press the button it’s real

you just press the button it’s real

you just press the button it’s real simple

simple

simple so I’ll show you guys what it looks like

so I’ll show you guys what it looks like

so I’ll show you guys what it looks like on my mask couple s notes when voting

on my mask couple s notes when voting

on my mask couple s notes when voting your LEDs connecting them to your wires

your LEDs connecting them to your wires

your LEDs connecting them to your wires you’ll want to know that the longer wire

you’ll want to know that the longer wire

you’ll want to know that the longer wire as seen here is the positive also if you

as seen here is the positive also if you

as seen here is the positive also if you decided that you didn’t want to use a

decided that you didn’t want to use a

decided that you didn’t want to use a momentary push-button you just wanted to

momentary push-button you just wanted to

momentary push-button you just wanted to have an on and off switch you’ll have to

have an on and off switch you’ll have to

have an on and off switch you’ll have to add some type of resistor because these

add some type of resistor because these

add some type of resistor because these LEDs will burn out pretty quickly that’s

LEDs will burn out pretty quickly that’s

LEDs will burn out pretty quickly that’s why I’m using the momentary push button

why I’m using the momentary push button

why I’m using the momentary push button and another alternative is to just use

and another alternative is to just use

and another alternative is to just use two double-a batteries as opposed to the

two double-a batteries as opposed to the

two double-a batteries as opposed to the 9-volt and that’ll eliminate having to

9-volt and that’ll eliminate having to

9-volt and that’ll eliminate having to use any kind of resistor here’s what my

use any kind of resistor here’s what my

use any kind of resistor here’s what my mask looks like as it’s finished you

mask looks like as it’s finished you

mask looks like as it’s finished you have the remote with the momentary

have the remote with the momentary

have the remote with the momentary push-button and and on the inside what

push-button and and on the inside what

push-button and and on the inside what you’ll do to finish it is you’ll take

you’ll do to finish it is you’ll take

you’ll do to finish it is you’ll take just some black electrical tape and

just some black electrical tape and

just some black electrical tape and you’ll bend the LEDs so that they fold

you’ll bend the LEDs so that they fold

you’ll bend the LEDs so that they fold over on the eye sockets like so and then

over on the eye sockets like so and then

over on the eye sockets like so and then you just tape everything and this wire

you just tape everything and this wire

you just tape everything and this wire you’ll know if worried about it getting
