Ok Someone's got to kick this thing off Still waiting for my first subscription issues to arrive but picked up a copy from my local tesco this morning when i popped in for milk Not a lot to look at or do in the first issue but one thing that's obvious is the improvement in the feel/quality of the parts from the test issues earlier this year Bobbaf3nn attached the following image(s): Current builds: Eaglemoss DeLorean, Deagostini R2 D2 Build

fit the LED Cluster into the LED Cluster Mounting so that the three pin sockets match the three screw holes and then screw them together using the 3 black fixing screws Bobbaf3nn attached the following image(s): Current builds: Eaglemoss DeLorean, Deagostini R2 D2 Build

remove the wire holding the power lead together You will notice that there is 2 different plug sizes.. we want the smaller one to attach to the cluster to the control circuit Simply press it together until it clicks firmly into place And that's it for issues one just need to put away until next issues arrive Thanks for looking guys ... Have a great 2017  Bobbaf3nn attached the following image(s): Current builds: Eaglemoss DeLorean, Deagostini R2 D2 Build
