Would anyone know who manufactures these smaller door lourvers (in black) and larger door (toward rear)? I picked up a set of Plano Replacement Body Louvers for early GP thinking the would be the right size, but they're not a match for either the smaller or larger louver. I searched Canon and Co. catalog and didn't notice a similar part. The model is by Elizabeth Allen. www.pbase.com/tracktime/image/99431664They would be used similarly on an SD-9E. While I'm at it who makes the jack pads? Thank you, Dan

Those are the old DA louvers, there were like 20 or so of them on a sheet. You have to cut and sand them to make them useable, so they are paper thin, then glue them on.
Those jacking psds are handmade by Liz.
Typical of her modeling...

Thank you Brian, I just found a set of resin transfers that I think I'll try for the louvers from Archer. www.archertransfers.com/AR88056.htmlAs for the jack pads and anything else EMD are there any good references or books for measurements/ placement? I think I'll try to swing by Schellville and see if there are still a set of SD-9s rusting away to take measurements. Barring that I'm not sure.

I remember people used to use Cambell courrageted metal cut to size and glued on, and if for some reason the metal fell off , the plastic would still have the impression of louvers.
