This new release from Lion Roar says that it is suitable for the Tamiya kit. I believe that this set is more than suitable for any Sd.Kfz 232 framed or wheeled vehicle. This set is very beautifully done. I don't care who the manufacturer of the kit may be, they do not stand up to these nicely done replacements.

Included in this little set are four width indicators made of cast brass, one resin rearview mirror, a small fret of photo-etched mounting plates and brackets, and a black and white instruction sheet. The only issue I see with this set is that the modeler needs to know the vehicle he is putting these on if he wishes to be accurate. This set is both longer and bigger in diameter compared to the Lion Roar generic set that they have also released.

Special thanks goes out to Dragon Models USA for providing this cheap and excellent replacement set and to IPMS/USA for having a place for other modelers to see these reviews and decide if this product is right for them. Have fun….build a wheeled German armored car!
