Important things to note:
Laying cables in between and underneath bricks
Cables can t in between and underneath LEGO® bricks, plates, and tiles
providing they are laid correctly between the LEGO® studs. Do NOT
forcefully join LEGO® together around cables; instead ensure they are
laying comfortably in between each stud.

CAUTION: Forcing LEGO® to connect over a
cable can result in damaging the cable and light.
Connecting cable connectors to Expansion Boards
Take extra care when inserting connectors to ports of Expansion Boards.
Connectors can be inserted only one way. With the expansion board
facing up, look for the soldered “=” symbol on the left side of the port.
The connector side with the wires exposed should be facing toward the
soldered “=” symbol as you insert into the port. If a plug won’t t easily
into a port connector, do not force it.

Incorrectly inserting the connector can can
result in bent pins inside the port or possible
overheating of the expansion board when
connected.
Connecting cable connectors to Strip Lights
Take extra care when inserting connectors to ports on the Strip Lights.
Connectors can be inserted only one way. With the Strip Light facing up,
ensure the side of the connector with the wires exposed is facing down. If
a plug won’t t easily into a port connector, don’t force it. Doing so will
damage the plug and the connector.
Installing Bit Lights under LEGO® bricks and plates.

When installing Bit Lights under LEGO® pieces, ensure they are placed the
correct way up (Yellow LED component exposed). You can either place
them directly on top of LEGO® studs or in between.
. . .
OK, Let’s Begin!
. . .
1.) Start by disconnecting the two long roof sections that run along each side of the
Star Destroyer

Turn the ship around so we can access the back, then disconnect the
centre jet section followed by the two side jet sections.

2.) Take the centre jet section and follow the images below to disconnect sections
so that we can disconnect the jets.

3.) Follow the below images to disassemble the jet section
4.) Take a the left jet and then turn it over so we can access the back.
Take a White 30cm Bit Light and thread it down one of the bottom
holes and then out to the right.

Thread the Bit Light all the way through and then bend it slightly toward
the centre in between the four holes. Secure the Bit Light in place by
reconnecting the trans orange piece over the top.

5.) Take the right jet and then repeat the same process used for the left
jet to install another White 30cm Bit Light to it.
6.) Take the centre jet and install another White 30cm Bit Light the same
way we did for the left and right jets.

Turn the jet over and reconnect the 2x3 plate we removed earlier
underneath ensuring the cable is laid in between studs.

7.) Reconnect the three jets together then group the three cables and
thread them inside the space behind before reconnecting to the main
jet section.

Reconnect surrounding pieces which we removed back at step 2.
8.) Disconnect the left set of jets from the main section and then
followthe images below to disassemble it.

Turn the below piece over to access the back then install another White
30cm Bit Light the same way we did for the previous jets.

Reconnect this piece back to the rest and then reconnect surrounding
pieces.

9.) Take the following 2x2 round brick and turn it over to access thebase
of it. Take another White 30cm Bit Light and thread it through the
centre hole all the way through.
Slightly bend the Bit Light so that it is directly facing upward before
pushing it down and reconnecting the trans orange plate over the top.
Important Note: Allow some excess cable inside the hole of the round
brick for the technic bar to push through the back. Do not pull the cable all
the way through to the end otherwise the cable may break when inserting
back onto the technic bar.

Turn the piece over and reconnect the dark grey round plate ensuring the
cable is laid in between the studs.

Reconnect this piece by pushing it back onto the technic bar. Do this very
carefully to ensure the cable does not break. Reconnect surrounding
pieces we removed earlier
Turn this section over and then lay the cable underneath the 1x4 plate as
per below then reconnect this section back to the main centre section.

10.) Disconnect the right set of jets and then install another 2x White
30cm Bit Lights to it the same way we did for the left set of jets (Step 8–9)
