HL Panzer III /IV storage bin
found a question on a sister site asking about removing/upgrading the storage bin on the rear of of the turret,guess they were trying to figure out how it attached.
i have seen a number of models with the upgraded metal bin fitted. Anyone tell us how it’s attached?

On the original pz III models from HL the bin ( or "Rommelkiste") was molded as part of the turret and oversized to accommodate the mechanism used to raise and lower
the main gun. To change it to a more realistic or scale size required cutting off the molded part, closing up the opening, at least partially and making or purchasing
a replacement. It also required changing the way the elevation was accomplished.
Not sure if the later pz III models especially the metal versions have this problem.
