Headlights for MonsterBorg

Hey, I want to mod my MonsterBorg and give it some LED headlights. I've bought some 12v LEDs and was wondering if anyone here had any recommendations? I thought about daisy chaining an additional ThunderBorg to the existing one and driving the LEDs with these but it's currently out of stock. Would something like a PicoBorg connected to the GPIO pins work? Not sure how you would code the Pi to turn the LEDs on/off so any advice here would also be very appreciated!

PicoBorg will work for switching 12V LEDs. All you would need to do is add some wiring so that the GPIO is connected to both the PicoBorg and the ThunderBorg at the same time.

We also have a small number of ThunderBorgs back in stock here. This will make the wiring much easier as all you will need to do is connect two 3-Pin Male/Female or two 3-Pin Female/Female cables between the two ThunderBorgs using the daisy-chaining.
