I would try contacting Ranger in the USA who manufacture 3900's in their Malaysian factory, their service department are usually very helpful. See the link below for a picture of the front panel on their web site, obviously a couple of the switch functions are labelled differently to a Cobra 148. http://www.rangerusa.com/ss3900.html Regards, Matt. |

Thanks for that Matt. In the meantime wishing to share what ive found with others in case its of interest to them Truck King still do the top and bottom cases at £8 each plus £3.50 P&P. These, unlike some ive seen do NOT have the extra fixing holes halfway along the front. I have seen an interesting Panel on an american website and it has an image on it but as of yet had no reply to if it would fit a cobra 148. Many thanks to all those who have contributed so far, Graham www.open-channel.co.uk |
