Fuel Cell Filler Thingy

I'm looking for a dual-valve fuel cell filler cap part, like this:


I know there are photoetched parts for these. I have one in an NSX set, and here's another example:


Do you know where I can find one?

Will this Sakatsu set (#3029) build a dual valve filler? There's no "double circle" part...

THATS WHAT THOSE ARE??!?! I thought they were neat exhaust pipes....

With a little putty, glue, and some very small washers it can be done!

Jay,
Did you try looking on Tower Hobbies? They have a huge amount of Detail Master stuff and maybe something you could use?
You could always ask Wong?
What about www.mas-parts.com?
I am sure you could find them, I will snoop around to see if I can too....

Talking

Build your own from thin styrene sheet stock by sandwiching them together.

I'd imagine you could scratch up a dual filler door from the Sakatsu set.

All you'd need to finish the job was to create some decals for the ATL name. Use clear decal film and print rest of the door black, paint the door silver and with the ATL name clear it would show through over the silver.

Those are called fuel filler doors (for an ATL fuel cell).
hth,
Bill

Jay,
i was looking for the same thing few month before and as you say, the sakatsu NSX PE PART (#3033) contains a dual valve fuel filler cap.
On this pe part there is also disc plate, winshield, that can be used on other model.
For my mind it s the best way.
You can find it at wong place : here

Well if any of you purchase the Sakatsu piece, tell me what kind of quaility it has! I mean I expect something well-done since I purchase a few things off of them before, anyways going off the topic, has anyone purchased any of the engines from Sakatsu? They're hella expensive! But are they any good?

I looked at DM and MAS, but didn't find a close enough match.

Oh! He does have them...! I was looking through his Sakatsu stock yesterday and couldn't find them! Thanks!

Like I said, I already have a Sakastu NSX set, and it's really great, especially the hood pins, but I don't want to bastardize it before I get around to building the NSXs themselves...

Thanks everyone!
