The 2014 FRC KOP comes with many of the same standard components we've seen for a few years now, with the exception of the CIM motor coolers and the new AndyMark 14U chassis. PTC gives you all these items as Creo CAD files in the standard KOP downloads on www.ptc.com/go/firstkop. If you are looking for other items such as hardware, fasteners, constrution materials, etc. here are some good locations to check out. If you canont find a unique item, always try the manufacturer's site first to see if they provide CAD or a recomendation for acquiring CAD.
