D ring fasteners anywhere?
Does anyone know of any PE or 3D D ring fasteners anywhere? I am working on a 1970 917K and the pics I have seen clearly show D fasteners on that front bonnet part. I'm not usually THAT picky about details, but those moulded on NOT D fasteners on the Fujimi kit.......yuck. I know Studio 27 made a PE set with the proper fasteners but they keep rereleasing things I don't need instead of things I do need.....like 917K PE sets or Benetton 188 carbon decals. Thanking you in advance.....

Maybe some Bonnet pins from ABER?

Try and google for "dzus fastener scale" that should give you some ideas.

Re: D ring fasteners anywhere?
That is a nice set, thank you. Funny that I spent an hour scowering the interwebs ( ) for "fasteners" when the term I needed to use was "bonnet pins". Always fun trying out think the search engines. And then Hiro calls them "catch pins".oversteery wrote: ↑Tue Jan 02, 2024 4:06 pm Some d rings on this set: https://www.hiroboy.com/124_BonnetHood_ ... -3700.html
Anyone know what the big rings on that Hiro set are for?

Re: D ring fasteners anywhere?
Yeah I know, the reason I know about them is I was looking for them myself some time ago and struggled to find them due to using the incorrect description. I just dug around in my stash and still have the unused pack which I’ll probably never use. I’m happy to send it to you for postage cost, PM me if you’re interested.

Looks like I have it taken care of. Thank you to everyone for helping, now let's hope my 2023 bad luck with modelling hasn't followed me into '24.dingo07 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 02, 2024 9:24 pmCan you post a picture of exactly what you're looking for? and what scale do you need them in?bossy122 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 02, 2024 12:13 am Does anyone know of any PE or 3D D ring fasteners anywhere?
