Where can I do this?
At the ship dealer of any base who's name contains 'shipyard'. For example, Norfolk ship-yard is a ship-yard. Planet Manhatten is not a ship-yard.
How do I change a light?
When you enter the dealer, type /pimpship. You must do this or the following will not work.

Then type /showsetup to see all of your current lights:
![[Image: 358ozeq.png]](http://i45.tinypic.com/358ozeq.png)
- the first is the <hard point ID>
- the second is hard point name
- the third is the name of the item mounted on the hard point.
Type /showitems to see all of the available equipment:
![[Image: sb7uc6.png]](http://i46.tinypic.com/sb7uc6.png)
- the first is the <item ID>
- the second is the name of the item.
To change an item, type /setitem <hard point ID> <item ID>. For example typing /setitem 01 02 will change the HeadLight of my ship from LargeWhiteSpecial to LargeRed.
Once you have made all of the changes you want to, type /buynow. You will be automatically kicked after this. When you log back in, your new lights will be visible.
Can I change an engine?
No.
Can an admin change an engine?
Not anymore.
There are no council ship-yards, what do I do?
Go to a junker ship-yard.
How much does it cost?
1,000,000 fat ones.
I've messed up the look of my ship, how can I reset my ship to the default light?
- Buy a new ship.
- Ask someone with the same ship as you to tell you what lights they have.
I type /pimpship and it doesn't work?
- Are you in a ship-yard?
- Are you in the ship-dealer too? (the place that sells ships)
- Are you sure that you are in ship-yard and ship-dealer at the ship-yard?
- Are you really sure that you are in ship-yard and ship-dealer at the ship-yard?
- Are you able to buy ships here, or are you just getting equipment?
(it doesn't work in every ship)

In short: Your light effects are now pimpable.

Why this does not seems to work? Do I need some specific ship for it?

Comments and explanation about new opshun please?
@Del: Ninja'd
EDIT: Cannon, could you add this option at Evora?

Ah, how convenient. Time for some ugly hacks and illegal modifications.
However aren't there some traffic laws under which the local police can fine you if you aren't using the standardised headlight and docking light?
I bet the LPI is going to have yet another chance to get free workforce for hand-made toy manufacturing on Sugarland and Huntsville.

Once you've done all the setitem nonsense you need to hit /buynow, but it can only be done on shipyards.
I.e. any abse that contains the name Shipyard. Nowhere else.
