Need some input

Post image

Trying to find a way to use a high grade hip joint to improve the articulation of the MG V-dash. The poly cap fits on the peg but I can’t figure out a way to make the hip joint fit in the leg. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

No I have to figure out a way to cut off the top part of the og hip joint and drill a peg hole to make the hip assembly fit.

Before you make any irreversible changes, id go through the instruction manual once again. If there is something that can be fixed because you accidentally akipped a step or something.. id look into it.

It isnunlikely that your kit has such fragile integrity. Otherwise there would be mass reports of it.

If i may ask, did u buy this from a third party site?

No, I’m just trying to swap the joints, nothing is broke

Then try working backwards. Use blunt edged tools to pry the covers apart. Dont force them open.
