Good day all

Having finally taken the plunge to buy HA Sideswipe, I'm now interested in doing some modification not requiring a huge degree of skill. I couldn't find any posts here, but I did find a good one here:

http://www.sector70.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=47045&mpage=1

However the modder makes reference to some items I know nothing about.

1 x Click hinge (Hinge Tile 1 x 3, Locking With Single Finger On Top: id number 44300)
1 x Click hinge (Hinge Plate 1 x 2, Locking With Dual Finger On End Vertical: id number 44302)
2 x Lego stud (Plate, Round: id number 4073)

What ID numbers are these? Do they come from some standard Amercian catalog? Living in Asia how would I know which items these are and are there any other names? Would especially be great if any of you living in Asia could give me a clue.

Thanks!

Those should be the Lego ID#s, you should be able to use them order individual bricks on the Lego site.

Lego? You mean lego's got hinges? Sorry it's been a long time since I played with them (nigh on twenty five years!). I thought from the writer's pics that these were bought from some hardware shop!

You didn't notice the word LEGO printed on the parts in those pics?

You can buy all these parts at simply toys.

http://www.simplytoys.com.sg/ (outlets are listed on the lower blue bar on page) I usaully visit raffles place/ plaza sing outlets. They have more parts. Each of these parts should cost you $0.50

these are the IDs for the lego pieces. They are very common.

No mate this is one of those things where, if you already know what they are, it's obvious, but if you know absolutely nothing about them they're just meaningless. Especially when I can only make out certain letters with certainty.
