Light are not contact points

if they are not modelled light they'll be in the light section and you should be able to use the existing positions jut changing the name of the effect.

If you need to find new positions it's a bit trial and error

Look at the cfg of a default aircraft...they usually describe what each value does...that will tell you which way to move the figures which are usually in feet from the centre of the model.

Sorry forgot what the areas of the plane are called and I could not find the word. So I could only use the one which would at least give people a clue :-[.
But thanks
