I think this will be the most appropriate thread for this minor project. A Southern Pacific GP30 with the proper SP light packs, I am using a DW GP30 kit. I do not remember where on the internet i learned this trick. But the problem was I had to cut out the old vertical molded lenses on the nose, leaving a massive gap beneath the SP nose light. I took a styrene strip, heated it up till it almost started melting (softening it) - and shoved it in the hole! Currently I am adding new fans, a mix between Cannon and Plano, will also cover up the rear number boards, add MU hoses etc. Will post current picture soon, the above is from months ago.

Don't forget the brake pipe hoses on right side of coupler on both ends.
