  • Side skirts for panzer tank

    I would like to add some side skirts to any one of my panzers. Does any member know a retailer that sells them? Panzer III, IV, or V. I don't see any on Ebay. Has anyone made a pair at home? If so, can you share some measurement for me to make them too? Thank you!

            The one for the PZ4 is in the 2nd link. When you check out his site, he also got some rear convoy lights (totally forgot to include in my last order).

            BTW, remind him to exclude VAT if you were to order.

              Found it! I also saw the rear light. It looks kinda modern :-) I will ask him to exclude the VAT per your advice. Many thanks!

                Sclui...How do I ask him to take out the VAT? It is included automatically in the checking out process from the website.

                  Just send Dominique via email of what you intend to get, he will modify the invoice before payment. I know, the site doesn't take off VAT by shipping destination. Use this info@rctank.de

                    I have just done so. My panzers thank you for your help with their protection :-)

                      Good luck David, BTW, I have seen those cylindrical rear convoy lights on Tiger 2's, though there's a never-ending debate on the color.

                        BTW, I also found the side skirts set for the panther on the website too. Different material though. I want it still :-)

                          Thank you for sharing that pic. Dominique responded. All I need was to click payment through bank transfer. He will review and send me the new invoice for Paypal payment. I also found the side skirt for the Stug III. All the side skirts I need in one website . I took your advice and ordered one rear convoy light. Great find......Sclui!

                            Transaction went thru smoothly. He gave me additional discounts and took out the VAT. I will get them in three days

                              Excellent! Hope the parts are what you needed. I will see what I needed from him, didn't feel like paying shipping for only a couple pieces of fixtures at the moment.

                                I know what you meant. I spent 2 hours going over his website last night and looked thru all I need for 1 time shipping :-)

                                  But I realized that the amount he discounted on my picked items were more than the shipping fee.

                                    Another issue that I had was the currency exchange (Euro-US dollar) by Paypal in my transaction was $10 higher than the amount I googled on the rate of exchange. So I lost another $10.

                                      I know it sucks, between PP or the CC company, they do get you. But, the store has the goods, what can one do?

                                        Thank you so much for sharing the info on the rear convoy light. I ordered the cheaper version. I still like it.
