1/64 Scale Side-Mount Beacon with Bracket

Elevate the functional realism of your custom diecast projects with this precision-engineered 1/64 scale side-mount beacon. Specifically designed for utility vehicles, pilot cars, and heavy-haul tractors, this accessory is the perfect addition for any builder looking to move beyond factory-standard models. At Rockin H Farm Toys, we pride ourselves on being the premier source for quality parts for serious builders who understand that small, technical details make the biggest impact on a finished build.

Authentic Detailing for Service and Fleet Rigs

In the world of 1/64 scale customizing, adding safety lighting is one of the most effective ways to differentiate a standard shelf model from a professional-grade custom. This side-mount beacon features a highly detailed adjustable bracket, allowing you to mount it exactly where it’s needed—whether that is the side of a cab, a service bed, or a custom headache rack. Its proportions are meticulously scaled to ensure it looks right at home on brands like DCP, Greenlight, or Ertl.

The beacon itself is designed to catch the light, but for those aiming for a competition-level finish, the customization possibilities are endless. The bracket is sturdy enough to withstand the building process but remains easy to trim, ensuring a flush and professional mount every time.

Installation and Finishing Tips

Customizing should be accessible yet professional. To get the most out of this part, we recommend painting the bracket with a high-quality chrome or silver leaf paint to mimic polished steel. For the beacon lens, applying a thin coat of clear gloss or even a drop of specialized transparent amber paint will give it a “liquid” look that replicates real glass lenses.

The bracket is designed to be trimmed to your desired length. This is particularly useful when working with different cab widths or when mounting the beacon near specialized equipment like air cleaners or exhaust stacks. Simply trim, paint, and secure with a tiny dab of clear-drying hobby cement for a permanent, clean bond.
