Cam,
I'll throw an ammo box in with your turret. For the vision blocks and lense for the range finder, I cover/fill them in with sheet styrene. I then paint them black and give them a thin coat of clear (stoplight) red, followed by a couple coats of clear gloss. I think this looks much better than the clear plastic lenses that come in the kit. It also represents the anti-laser coating on modern optics well too.
