Make Your Own Lighted Flex Spy Eye

Do you want a cheap alternative to flexible spy cameras? Here it is.
What you need:
  One foot of very thick rubber covered wire
  A small $2 flashlight from Harbor Freight
  Two 18in. pieces of thin wire
  Electrical tape
  Scissors
  A desire to be sneaky!
  1 in. square mirror
  Soldering Iron
  Hacksaw
  Hot Glue Gun

Step 1: Preparation

Remove the rubber casing from your wire (without cutting the case), and dispose of the wire inside.  Split your rubber case on each end (make the cut about 1 in. long). Remove the battery holder. Take your flashlight and hacksaw and insert the flashlight into a vice (or other method of holding it while you cut it).  Cut off the end of the flash light (that the LEDs are on) about where the "grip" on that end of the flashlight ends (shown in picture).

The mirror is what makes it into an "eye" (see the 3rd step).
