Default Need some Tamiya Sherman parts

I am looking for Tamiya Sherman rear tail lights. The plastic housings and lenses.
Also looking for part B-18. Styrene part from B tree that goes between 30.cal machine gun barrel and the brass LED housing.

I am kind of in a hurry for B-18.
Could you drop it in an envelope wrapped in carboard or something?
Thanks.

Hi Guys
You might want to try these - http://www.shapeways.com/product/M4Q...i=shareProduct - they're designed to fit around a 5mm LED, with slightly ground down bulb - for the Sherman, just cut off the 6 bolt tabs.

Yes I did, I opened it last night thank you.


Any luck on the tail lights?

Those 3d printed ones look good but with the screw tabs around the outside they are post war through nam era. The tabs would have to be cut off and the housing shortened a bit.

Never had the chance to get into the parts bins. Just got home from a long weekend vacation with 2 sick kids. Will try and look asap.
