I have found the best way for this build is to not follow the instructions order of sequence. If you follow it step by step, you'll have issues with the interior, lots of guide pins showing etc.
Here are a few pics of my progress so far and some of the modifications that I have to to either correct an inaccurate part or to do a basic mod. Looking for feedback, hope you enjoy. Thanks for looking.

Here is the base that I have done for it. I want to portray the vehical as being current (2011 - 2012) Afghanistan.

I know that the Stryker is supposed to have the Cage armor but I do not have the skill set, not the patience to scratch build it myself.
