They realy sound this bizz... Great mod,which doesn't involve milling out the chassis.. Hi, Great weathering and updates. Just a couple of questions. I've used the Boom Box speakers in class 37's (They are excellent!!) but didn't realise they'd fit in the 47. Did you have to remove the fans or the fan and casing to fit in the 47 ? I had to lose the casing and secure the fans to the grilles in the 37. What is your YouTube channel called ? Thanks Trevor 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
