A full RGB dome lighting kit for R2D2. This is a simple way to get an R2 dome light setup. Simply connect the wires, install the boards, and give it a stable 5v. By default it is set up to be R2D2, but the code is fully customisable so you can use it for your own unique droid. You will need some form of bezels to protect the LEDs, but as it uses the same mounting holes as Teecees these should be easy to get. Infact, the front logic displays have the exact same LED pattern as the Teecees so you can use the black surround that is easily available. For the rear ones you can just use the front clear acrylic piece. These come as a complete kit, no soldering required.
I ship world wide.
These of course are not the only option. If you want to learn more I’ve done a comparison of some of the common club lighting systems here: https://r2djp.co.uk/2024/04/19/let-there-be-light/

Another builder is currently doing a run of the bezels in the uk: https://portal.droidbuilders.uk/parts-run/45. You can also 3d print or make your own. Files for this and other handy things like mounting plates and spacers can be found here: https://r2djp.co.uk/2022/06/09/astropixel-extras/ . There is also a run by Travis on the main forum which can be found here.
For more information on the code, how to install/assemble, and even send commands to trigger effects, check out: https://r2djp.co.uk/category/electronics/astropixels/
