What type of chassis are you runing on your rig?

either way I like side mount the best. it holds the rig together better. some chassis need to be moded a bit to fit a scale body. but its realy all up to the way you prefer.

Best bet for scale bodies is velcro. I never have liked the look of a scale body with body posts and pins sticking out.... ruins the whole effect.

I agree with the side mounts. If your body mount poles aren't long enough, you have to fab something up. get some aluminum from the LHS or hardware store and get to work. Can't be too hard to make a square shape, bolt it on and add some velcro.

velcro is you best bet by far. i used a newbright on my rig and the velcro and it held up pretty good.
