Im building a Norwegian Leopard 2A4 are there any other changes to the turret rear other than the boxes on the side of the turret bustle?

According to Tankograd Leopard book, you need to add a FN MAG mount -similar to the Dutch one- on the loaders hatch and a crosswind sensor in the position as on the original one. Antenna mounts are from Comrod and a third one is located right behind the commanders hatch.

Antenna mounts are not Comrod. They are a Norwegain manufacturer, but not used on 2A4NO. The third antenna is on command tanks only. Not vey common. These are what you need: http://leopardclub.ca/workshop/LW041/
I have dimensions and photos of the turret boxes if you need them.
