[morecoffeee]

Okay so i have a 2005 MR Mace Windu (Hilt Only) no speaker/battery box, nothing.

I have been wanting to add sound and a TRI CREE LED kit because i like there colors the best.

I just need help with a list of all the parts i need, i have no idea where to start, never customized or built a saber before.

[ UPDATED INFO ] +NEW PICS of Inside Hilt

Sooo for some reason i think they glued the activation switch for this hilt, don't know if i can still work with it...

I don't know what size battery/speaker box to go with the Mace Conversion Kit from TCSS :/ if you guys can help me out that would be dope

Im currently looking at the Basic Saber-build linked on your signature thing, but im still having trouble finding parts i need for a Force FX Conversion , i bought the hilt empty so i don't know what kind of electronics were inside beforehand.

there's not many threads out there that help with what im looking for

I'm currently trying to figure out all the parts i need to make this hilt have sound/LED/blade , it's currently empty. I don't have any old parts to use as a reference so i dont know which "exact" parts i need

If you are trying to recreate the parts from the original mace you'll have a hard time. eBay does, once in a while, have the guts of old sabers on sale; although, they are few and far in between. The adapter that I put up, will make your saber accept a led star and a detachable 1" blade. The electronics are up to you at that point. It's whatever will fit in the hilt. I'd suggest Nbv2 sound board when it comes back in stock. Until that soundboard is available however, you can go to the custom saber shop YouTube page and learn 90% of the theory and parts needed to make your saber functional. Including how to make a purple blade by color mixing. Good luck, and may the force be with you.

I'm just going to throw this out there... SF doesn't possess any special, exclusive LED colors... What they do have are inferior, outdated LEDs and inefficient optics that create very disappointing blades. Building a tri CREE module from TCSS will result in a much better looking blade. Hell, a 3W rebel produces a better looking blade than a "12W" SF LED. (That's not an exaggeration. I have photos if you want them)

All that being said... it's your saber and your decision, but you're reeaaally better off with TCSS parts.
