Cockpit Lexan Aston DBR9 Black Arrow

The lexan cockpit your Black Arrow Aston Martin DBR9 needs

Maintaining a slot car in perfect condition goes far beyond just ensuring it runs well. The body details, especially the cockpit, make the difference between a model that looks impeccable on the track and one that shows signs of wear or an unfortunate accident. With the SRP11005 lexan cockpit, specifically designed for the Black Arrow Aston Martin DBR9, you can recover this key component without sacrificing the original factory fit.

Function and features

The cockpit is the lexan piece that reproduces the interior of the car: dashboard, seat, driver figure, and interior details are integrated into this unit. Being made of lexan—a lightweight and durable polycarbonate—it offers good impact resistance without adding unnecessary weight to the overall model.

• Original reference: SRP11005
• Compatibility: Black Arrow Aston Martin DBR9
• Material: Lexan (polycarbonate)

When do you need to replace the cockpit?

The most common situations that lead to replacing this piece are:

• Breakages or cracks after accidents on the track.
• Loss of the piece during the disassembly of the car.
• Aesthetic deterioration after years of use or exposure to light.
• Restoration of a second-hand model to make it like new.

In all these cases, having the original cockpit ensures that the final result is true to the production model, without adaptations or visual compromises.

Assembly and preparation

The replacement process is straightforward for any enthusiast with basic experience in disassembling slot cars. Simply remove the body, extract the damaged cockpit, and fit the new one into place. As this is a specific piece for this model, the fit is direct, with no need for additional modifications.

If you take the opportunity to customise or paint the interior, lexan accepts specific paints for polycarbonate well. Brands like Tamiya or Vallejo have suitable references for this material, which should be applied to the reverse side of the piece to protect the finish.
