Turret roof

This kit has some interior detail on the underside of the turret roof. But it doesn't represent the wiring for the electrical components.

Wiring on Late roof

Thin electrical cables were attached to the roof in this pattern, powering the lights and the fan, while providing two electrical sockets at the front. This layout of the wiring was specific to the later "Mid" Tigers and all of the "Late" Tigers.

As well as omitting the wiring, Rye Field did not provide the two electrical sockets at the front of the roof. They also omitted two of the three lamps, and the fan's on-off switch. These were all connected by the wiring.
