There will be seven 2N3904 transistors in Metropolis. Measure their amplification factor and group them into three couples with similar amplification. Use one couple for receiver, one for transmitter and one for AUI.
Build the following modules:
Take thermal shields from the optical heads and mount them on receiver and transmitter, using 2 M3 nuts on each.
put four M4 (4.3mm) washers on receiver and four on transmitter. Press the optical head from the side and insert receiver and transmitter. Put on the slide covers and 4 M4 nuts on receiver and 4 M4 nuts on transmitter.
Put the heating cable that goes from the front cap through the single hole on the rear cap in both the optical heads. Connect it into the wire nut. Connect the receiver's and transmitter's lead into the terminal nut from the same side as you connected the heating cable.
