Does anyone know if there are any cockpit detail sets for the Hobbycraft 1/48 A-4C?

I don't think there are any that I have seen for any of the hobbycraft kits. I know I would just use one for the hasagawa kit and do any extra modifying needed to make it fit. As with most that I do that way, it is just a bit of extra sanding. I am just starting an Acadamy F-86 and using an aries cockpit designed to fit the hasagawa kit. It took a bit of extra surgery, but was not that difficult. Keep dry fitting and sanding until it does fit.

I have also not seen any aftermarket kits for Hobbycraft and I pay attention to Skyhawk related releases. I may have an old Hobbycraft A-4 kit somewhere so if I find it I can see if maybe Hasegawa or Monogram parts will fit.

Thanks guys. that was going to be my next question, if this was whole new tooling or an existing kit from Hasegawa, Monogram, etc.. Let me know what happens with your Skyhawk.
