Today was the first chance I've had to mess with the Honcho since I got it. Picked up a few items from Fine Laser Designs.
First up is the body holders. Basically they are prop rods to hold the body open while you change batteries, or do minor maintenance.
The grey braces (on the top left) screw into the shock tower and clip onto the body rail when it flips up. Locks the body in place and folds up next to the tower when not in use.
Next up was the body latch. This piece replaces the need to use the body clips which are very awkward to use. It attaches to the body posts and securely clips to the chassis. Easy to open wth a slight push but in a safe place that won't get accidentally released.
Both parts were super easy to install, four screws total and really well engineered. Not super interesting upgrades but really practical upgrades.
Next up on my list, track down a driver for the interior.
