HELLO CHAPS well im now fittin in the office an front undercart into the front fusealarge part an it fits lovely considering on how old the kit is about 60 yrs old

 

[BOATMAN]

AN i dont know if it will be worth all the effort of fitting firbe optics in the instrument panel to bring a bit of colour to it but well ive done it so far but just got to trim up the f/o so they are level an then just paint on them the tamyia clear colour paints so when i fit the big 5 mm white led in place hopefully it should shine up the f/o to show up in the instrument panel

 

[BOATMAN]

AN HERE they are attached to the office all ready for the big 5 mm white ultra bright led just hope this works but if not then at least i can say i tried

 

[BOATMAN]

AN THE intrument panel with the F/O s fitted so see if it was a waste of modeleing time when i fit in the big 5mm ultra bright white led to shine the light up the
F/O s but if not well i treid
