Took some precise hacking, painted the inside glossy black, and then had to figure out the lighting. The lights from the Lotus were used in the repair of my coworker's car and are expensive new. Thought about using cheaper trailer lights and using a trailer battery for power and let him learn how to hook it up when he wanted it lit. Finally decided on installing track lighting inside it and using just trailer lenses so that we could just plug into the wall outlet. Used plain white lenses for the center lights so we can light the room/floor when he plays and the outer red lights are on different circuit as night light.
Still wanna make a lid and thinking about mounting windshield-shaped mirror w/ painted steering wheel and gauges on wall directly behind it.
Oh, and he already has a real working flashing traffic light in his room.
