Greetings!

So, building a Tiger's interior is a bit harder than I thought! NONE of the books/websites I have seen have said when they changed the Tiger's turret interior storage bins.
I know that the turret was drastically changed in June, 1943 when the Commander's hatch was changed. Is this also when the "early" bins where everything was nice and tidy , and even had labels on them were taken out in favor for bins which were just large generic storage for everything?
I'm guessing that it was just something that kind of "happened" as cuts were made due to the lack of resources. But, I have found no proof for that.

Can you validate my theory? I hope someone knows more than my books!!
