I have no idea Ed, hoping someone will reply who's done it before. If I cut the plastic, the latch would be hanging in mid air and would be weakened in my opinion. Lets see who replies.

PS Torro has installed photo etch on top of the plastic on my King Tiger.

They are just sitting there, not glued yet. Did you cut the plastic grill away before you installed them or lay them on top of the plastic grills. Thank you.

This one is pretty much complete until I get comfortable with my weathering skills. Thanks for all of the help everyone.

Good work there. I learnt a bit there too.
Tiger 1. KV1, T34/85 and PkzIII all by Heng Long, painted and moded by me. It's fun and tricky stuff.
