Ray of sunshine posted:I've used several of the P&D pilots. My first P&D was for an E7, mounted to the chassis. Fit was perfect.
Since then have used the P&D pilot on Lionel Legacy F7's, mounted (glued) to the shell using Loctite GO2 glue.
In both cases I elected to add closed doors for the coupler opening. I think for my next project, I'll leave the doors open and add a Kadee coupler.

It's easy, I cut the pilot doors along the seam and just used two screws to hold them in place, open.
