Claus,

Is that what he calls the Hi-Rise Cab? Did it bolt directly to the Tamiya cab mount? What are you planning for the side windows?

Thanks,
Chris

No, it is not the Hi-Rise cab. Here is a link to the one I bought;

Yes it uses the Tamiya floorboard and metal plates to mount to. It will not accept Tamiya windows so I have not figured out what to do there yet. I do not like the frosted windshield I bought from Goose, I would much rather have clear windows than ones that are painted black. My older version of printed cab uses the Tamiya floorboards, mounts, windows, mirrors, the whole 9 yards. So some days I still consider going back to that cab.

OK thanks. I think you can polish the windows, maybe with some fine grit sandpaper. If I use those I will probably polish the windows then use Tamiya Clear Smoke and paint the inside so it looks slightly tinted.

You might ask Russ about it, he may be able to give you some advice.

Thanks,
Chris
