Installing BLMA Spartan Style Cab Doors-help needed

[GP38-2freak]

Today my BLMA parts for the SD45 Hi Hood arrived and I need some help...if someone has used/installed these (Parts #17) could you give some instructions how to install them?
I'd like to model them opened..thank you very much

Installing our Spartan Cab Doors is as simple as removing the plastic (molded) door and positioning the etched-metal door in place.  Please see the photo and model by Joe Gartman:



I would recommend removing the molded door by drilling through the door in numerous spots with a roughly #70 drill, then using a sharp blade to connect those holes.  Eventually you will be able to remove the material and clean-up the doorway.  Then, you can paint the metal etching to match and affix the part with CA glue of your choice - we recommend anything 'medium' viscosity.

Please feel free to contact us with any additional questions.  Thanks for the support!
