I was in the process of putting in a Tsunami sound decoder in my new Kato SD70MAC and I had shortened the rear headlight light pipe so I could fit a 16 x 35mm oval speaker over the rear trucks and was having fitment issues. Well I wasn't paying attention and upon removing it for the 3rd or forth time I snapped off both small headlight pegs. Well I found one and the other must have went flying. lol

Can you even buy this part? I don't see it listed on Katousa.com or at Walthers. I guess I could create some from some clear acrylic sprues maybe. Maybe details West would have something to put in from the outside. I am probably going to have to just glue a LED right onto the inside of the rear shell as the light pipe just isn't going to work with the speaker there anyway.

Seems you can never get parts for stuff anymore.
