    Hi all,

    I just brought a 1:12 Tamiya Enzo from a dealer from Hongkong. It came with a missing signal/turn light on the left front (I got a big discount from the dealer).
    I have contacted Tamiya USA directly and they don't have the part.

    Anyone could help me find the part (the little signal light piece) or any idea how to fix it will be greatly appreciated!!!

    Thanks!
    Bill

    production problem. you can ask to replace the model by a new one or from ebay if you bought it or directly from tamiya
    send the picture. i think it will be quite long to received a new one.

    great model you have.i m not decided to have one...but this model will be rare later.

    May be worth opening up to check inside?

    In saying that i have just looked at mine and it would seem that there is nowhere for it to go and that the missing part was never even fitted.

    In my opinion, the signal indicator is hardly noticable. I would just keep it unless you find a very cheap replacement.

    Thanks guys!!!

    The model looks awesome. I'm definitely going keep it, hopefully I can find a very cheap replacement.

    I end up paid US$265 for this model, after the big discount from the dealer. Do you guys think this is a good/bad deal?

    Thats a great deal! Its a good idea to check the inside, Kyosho got me a rearviewmirror for my F40, or wait a while and check ebay regularly, who knows what will pop up in parts in the future.

    At this point in time, you'll have a hard time to find this part. For this price, I would not worry about it.
