Ok it's at an aussie online hobbyshop and it is exactly what you wanted. They will ship to the US.

http://boss.sps.com.au/cgi-bin/RT_Re...lication=radio

Click on search at the top of the screen then go down the page a bit until you get the choice between land, water, air and general "click on land" then in the boxes above it (i.e.) "Product Number" - type in the no. 53186 then in "Product Description / Classification (enter any string)" type in - Upper deck. Then press enter and there it is. Remember all price in australian dollars you can basically half. For a proper exchange rate click here - http://www.xe.net/ucc/ . SO your looking at about $17.70 US + shipping.

Do you think i should give a call to Tamiya America first since Australia is pretty far from Canada and I have never heard of that website yet...

That's probably a good idea. They might know a supplier that has one closer to canada then australia . You might be able to order one through tower, that's what I was told via email when I inquired about the front body mount from the tamiya lemans kits(wanted a double body mount on my Hpi F1) but I couldn't be bother'd and never got around to getting it. If you can't find one closer though at least you have one place that you know has them. Good luck in getting your part.

www.radiomodels.com.au

i buy most of my parts from them and are very competitive too. I spoke to a guy there and he said 60% of his business is too the US.
This was posted in the Aussie forum. Radio models is the site I gave you but it is the url of there online shop not the front page, If you want some more info p/m nitro dave cause he might be able to tell you some more about them.

Before you call Tamiya USA, you should call Borgfeldt Canada. They are the exclusive Tamiya distributor in Canada.

Theoretically, you should be able to go to any hobby shop that carries Tamiya parts in Toronto and give them the part number and they can order it for you.
