Vision Ports
The hull mounted vision slits, just in front of the turret, are nothing like the originals.
There are two ways to remedy this.
1. Cut the originals right down and mould them into the hull casting with milliput.
2. Cut a slice out of each one to bring the tops down level with the hull casting.
The vision ports can be removed very easily, simply slide a flat bladed screwdriver behind each one and prise them out.
