Inga problem.

But are you sure it doesnt? This is the same kind of setup he have. A box split in two.

In this file i have only done some changes on the original box that get mirrored on the other side.

In Display Options you can specify what Draw mode to Use for Normal and Templated Geometry. I think that is what you are looking for.

Worth knowing too that the edit sop has a mirror option on it.
The trick is finding just the right hammer for every screw
