gc1719 posted:Greetings SIRT, I saw that picture with the dual beam head lamps and thought to myself "Wow, when did MTH make that change to the molds?" Then I saw your comment "MTH needs to install dual beam head lamps like Lionel has already for the correct look. Makes a difference. These are brass add on caps with a flange."
Agreed it does make a difference! Was curious to know where you got the brass add on caps as that is an upgrade I would like to make to an MTH RS-3 I have as well. Thanks for any guidance you could offer on that. Really nice

Remove 4 shell screws, lift up shell carefully. Note: the RSD model has a front tab in slot design.
You will have to file around the brass flange. Also hand drill the hole. An Exacto knife and rounded file will be needed as well to enlarge the opening. Paint the 2 holes white and the outside the color needed. Cut a clear disc and glue it over the flange. Snap cap into opening using Elmer's glue. Not an easy project, about 2 hour's ea.
