I pieced together a clone turbo tank from a lot I bought. I gathered the parts
for the version 7261-1 with the Light up Mace Windu. Now I am trying to build
the set from instructions online and they all have the parts for the non-light
up version (at least from the parts list on here). The instructions even show
the light-up fig but have the parts for the non-light up one.
I am not home so I don't have access to the other parts to switch it over
and I also have the light up fig not the non-light up figure so I would like
to build it for 7261-1.

Can anyone direct me to the instructions or how to use
 
Part No: 2780  Name: Technic, Pin with Short Friction Ridges
* 
2780 Technic, Pin with Short Friction Ridges
Parts: Technic, Pin

in place of these?

 
Part No: 32054  Name: Technic, Pin 3L with Friction Ridges and Stop Bush
* 
32054 Technic, Pin 3L with Friction Ridges and Stop Bush
Parts: Technic, Pin



I'm confused and any help would be appreciated .

If you can't find the online instructions, I might be able to help.

Here is the first place where the different pieces are used:

About page 17, Step 16, one set of instructions uses 10 black plus 4 LBG pins
whereas the other set of instructions uses instead 12 LBG pins and 2 black pins
with stop bush. See pictures, and I'll post pictures of the next difference
in a few minutes.

Both versions of instructions are available from Brickset. Here is a list of
redesigned sets with info on where to find instructions:

There are a number of places where Black pins are used instead of LBG:

a) Step 5 Page 22: 4 black plus 4 LBG INSTEAD of 8 LBG
b) Step 23 Page 30: 2 black plus 2 LBG INSTEAD of 4 LBG
c) Step 25 Page 32: 2 black plus 2 LBG INSTEAD of 4 LBG

Back to the original question, on Page 46 step 12: The way the two tan connectors
#1 connect to the assembly are different as per the pictures. One uses two black
pins, and the other uses two pins with stop bush. There is another difference
in the pictures, but
I'll look a bit further into it.

It sounds like you now have the instructions you need. I'll just point out
that the 7261-2 uses 8 more of the pins with stop bush than the 7261-1. 4 of
them are accounted for in my previous pictures.

For the remaining ones, from my previous pictures, you could see 2 additional
black pins - these also end up being pins with the stop bush (Page 45 Step 8
to Page 49 Step 17).

Then lastly, Page 55-56, Step 7 to 11 is where the remaining pins with stop bush
are used differently.

I also think that there was a difference in the colour of the 4x4265c Tan versus
Yellow.

Thank you mandr for the pictures and helping me out.
I do now have the link to the instructions I am looking for.
