Oh and we routed a little chanel on the back of them to run the wires for the hero volvo panel.Īll of these elements had to be glued on.

I used my Universal Laser (i have one of these- ) to cut a router template. ![]() I know the HIC is a trapezoid and i had to take some liberties with my build. Then we had to decide how to do the sides. oh, and i paid a few people in beer to help clean out the Han mold.

THANKS A TON to SMOOTH-ON for giving me materials to do this silly project. but again, do a little search on here, and plenty of people are doing runs. The Han parts and Volvo panels i got from pals, and remolded them for my needs. I ended up going with Bigturc's greeblies and Fettronics for the lights- Īnd i couldnt have done this without help from Jedifyfe and his build thread- Īnd a couple more threads that i refrenced for my build-Īnd dont forget the thread that found the Volvo panel-įor all of my build pics, they are on this flickr album (im not inserting everything in the post)- Īnd the video about my build is here. then the Volvo panels and greeblies, then the electronics for the hero panel.ĪLL of this is floating around the RPF, and easy to dig up.
