Hello everyone!
I recently joined and wanted to share how I opened p the HL Tiger 1 radio and driver hatches. I used a hobby saw and it worked OK. I have a few pictures and wanted to share incase anyone was interested.
Mods to the Tiger include open driver view slot, cut slots in the fenders, metal engine hatch screens, relocated antenna, removed antenna tube, metal tracks, motor gears, front sprockets, and idler wheels (all came on the tank from HL). I am moving the switches to be under the hatches, removing the inner components for a better layout. I have some info on component to allow the top to be removed for work and battery changes. looking forward to that mod.
I also have a HL Sherman. Not going to mod that one as I do want something to run around the yard with while the Tiger is in the garage.
Respectfully,
G2

I agree Hermann, A nice clean job,
I used a step drill because I was afraid of bodging it using a saw.
Impressed.
