Rebuilding my ebay Hotshot wreck and I am using a rere2007 chassis.

I need the access cover plate (the piece that fits atop the chassis to allow top access to the radio box, and holds the hex for the body mount), but i can't for the life of me find a part number for it either from the original 58047 Hotshot or the 58391 Rere manuals/part lists.

Can anyone help me out ?

Thanks in advance.

You won't find it in the original Hotshot manual as it wasn't a Hotshot part, it was only used on the Hotshot 2 and is in the Hotshot 2 press parts bag, 9405321

According to the rerelease Hotshot manual, it's also listed in the new press parts bag, part number 9400639.

I guessed it might be only part of a bag, but Tamiya are hopeless at times listing everything thats in the combined parts bag on the parts lists (although i've now spotted it as a written part on page 25 of the rere manual). Tamiya were clever to not show the part , otherwise i'de have a perfect template to reproduce from. As its the only part from that bag i need i guess i'll be making my own, based on the aperture in the chassis.

Thanks for your help

Well I got a nice surprise whilst sifting through the various bags of new parts I'd bought. In the bag with the roof section was the access cover. Not sure whether this should have been there ( maybe seller broke up the pressed metal parts bag into smaller units ?) but I have it; bit of a bonus!
