    An hour later, and done! Does this make me a kitbasher?

    I kept the white shoulders on Red Alert, but swapped the red swivel joints from Sideswipe's tyres. I also swapped the red and white ankle joints between them. If anyone does work out how to change the panel under the car hood be sure to let me know. The white on Sideswipe just doesn't look right now.

    EDIT: Just saw loopholes's suggestion. Don't think I'll be doing that.

    Just confirming, using a soldering iron does work. It is a bit risky though. Might I also suggest changing the upper arms to red as well, involves removing pins, but well worth it IMO. Here's my version.

    Nicely done. I initially wanted to do mine like this but the pin removal put me off (I've done it only a couple of times) so I went with the red shoulders.
    Just think there can be an army of Red Alerts out there now, all with subtle differences.
