and a Detail Associates parts question............
Author: SantaFeCF7

Anybody have any idea where I can find some of the DA part # 1905 EMD Body Louvers ?
According to my LHS they've been on backorder for at least a year from Walthers, and I received no reply when I wrote to their address.

Why not try Plano #461 GP7/GP9 louver set instead?

Yes, but, I need to cut them to different widths and heights, and DA parts blend in much better when they are sanded thin. I don't feel like trying to cut up and resection etched-metal louvers, they look pretty good, but the louvers themselves are a raised 'flat'cross-section, not angled like the real louvers.
