Eldorada top plate
I am installing an aluminum upper plate for my eldorada. I have the reciever case and cover, the battery cover and the plate. It looks like I may be missing some supports and an antenna nut? Can anyone clarify this for me?

cdextreme.....
I looked at the Pictures on the Himoto site....
Cant tell from the Pictures How they mount the antenna, but I'm going to do some research and Find Out for you.
As for the MOUNTS....Can you take a Picture or two and show us what you Mean?
I personally have a Viper (similar, but not exactly the Same as the Eldorada), so some Pics would Help a lot....

RE: Eldorada top plate
Hey bro i'm thinking youre running into the same problem that I did when I installed my upper plate, In order for it to look all nice and uniform it requires that you use a hump pack. Here's some pictures of mine and a link to the battery pack.. hope this helps.

GRU - what the heck is that green display? Head temp? That's mighty cool, and you've got a very clean look to the mod. I don't like the one Red posted... way too cluttered and exposed looking. I've had problems already getting crud in my battery pack, with it IN the box. Without a battery/receiver box, the hump pack would be the only way to go!

I do have the humpack battery. looks like i need 2 of the battery cover parts to hold it in place. I will take pics and post them.
I found these on the himotoracing.com site. The antenna mount is not offered, I think that people who buy this part should also get any necessary parts with it as a kit.

That micro temp works good if you program it right. some people read it at the same rate as a gun and if its set up right it gives you max tenps when your running. you can pull over and your temps will drop 20 or 30 degrees [&o] so you guys with a gun are not as close as you think [&:]
