Yep... not a problem... as I mentioned the lever is only being held on by a cotter pin so all I'd have to do is remove the pin to remove the lever...

Are you sure? There's an FX shroud available on eBay ATM...
I am sure, there is gap and the screw on real and good replicas screws directly on the shroud, not the tube.

Buy a parks.

You know, I tried to buy a Parks MPP clamp (I ate my pride and noted they are good replicas) and he wants an incredibly ridiculous amount for shipping. That, and the stories of shipping taking months turned me away. I contacted Yodas House and have an unfinished clamp on the way

Yeah, $20 shipping for a clamp is robbery. I almost got one too. I've shipped entire flashes for less than that. Priority shipping for something like that is cheap. Ridiculous!
Yeah that's why I'm a little hesitant... shipping for both a shroud and a clamp from Parks is $30!

As you can see on the ROTJ version the position of the color wires is red, brown, grey, blue and then white ... the brown is a hard color since it's a more reddish brown as opposed to the more lighter brown we have today. Indeed the blue is like the Royal KLM airlines blue not sky blue ... and I happen to find some in an old vintage slide-projector along with the white of the correct gauge ... just found a vintage red wire last week ... all that remains now is the reddish brown before I can finish my DV MPP ESB/ROTJ style.
I'll post some pictures of the ones I have when it's daylight out ... bare with me guys

Um... blue wire?!? So what you're saying is that don't use Master Replicas as a guide to build this thing lol!
For the brown wire, go to an automotive parts store and look for a trailer wiring kit... its four 18 gauge wires (green, yellow, brown, white) connected together... all I did was strip the yellow and green wires and voila... though now you're telling me that it's a grey wire and not white with the brown??

Yep ... grey with brown ever since the discovery of the real ROTJ MPP :
And I'm in Europe so I'm not quite certain I'll find the correct reddish brown in an automotive parts store here though, yours looks close but it seems a thinner gauge then your white :wacko
And blue and white wires as can be seen here on the only backside picture available :

Congrats to your find man! :eek I'm glad they're still out there... kinda... Now it's one flash less
Ok all you damn perfectionists (grumblegumblebluewire?!?!grumblegumble)... better now?
I just got my t-tracks from Gino so I'll be working on that next.... still need my plastic sleeve replaced though...
Debating about just leaving the two-step shroud and using that... I'm keeping the M.P.P. plate on so it's already not going to be 100% accurate anyways...
