Lots of HPI bodies come with light buckets. It'll say on the HPI website "includes light buckets". But, I'll agree that it's the more modern/import bodies that usually come with light buckets.

Depending on the body style you might be able to use LED mounts like these:

The more "aero" the body is the less likely those will work well though.

Another option is to use some of the scrap lexan from the shell to make brackets and shoe goo them inside the body with the above led mounts pointed in the proper direction.
