Here is a shot of the bottom of the battery tray.

I made a plate out of some 18ga steel.

:thumbsup: Nice touch with those mirrors... I guess the fuses under the tray belongs to your amplifier? :)

The big ones(fuses), 1 does the Amplifier and the other is redundant to the battery since there is one already in the bypas. I just needed to have a spot to put the big amp wire. The smaller ones 3(20's) do the High /Low/Fog Lamps and the 30 which should be lower does the Ignition. I didn't want the car shutting off from a bad fuse. The instructions show it going straight to the battery no fuse. I'll probably put a 15A on it.

Great job, those stripes really top it off. Were they difficult to do?

I didn't think they were too bad. I followed the instruction and they turned out pretty good. The 422 decal is a bit crooked, but I have another if it bothers me too much.LOL You mix 1 cap of rubbing alcohol, 5-10 drops of dishwashing liquid detergent and water in a spray bottle. Spray it on the car and decal gives you plenty of time to adjust the decals. Squeegie out the mix and it's done!

Tom :thumbsup: I figured worst case scenario would be to order another kit.LOL I got it on the Bag for like 60 bucks. :s024:

I like those wings on the trunk, in my eyes they look smoother then the "go wing" (nothing negative about them, my oppinion only)

Yeah, I was supposed to have painted ones but the body shop lost the drivers side mirror. I'm getting used to the chrome.LOL

BTW they paid for 1 of these new ones....

That car is gorgeous! I bought 2 chrome ones off ebay for over 100 each and ended up sand blasting them because there were small pits in them, now they will be painted.

That was the original plan. :s006: These "new" ones were a little under 400 for the pair. :s005:

Thanks Tom :thumbsup:

Slow progress to report. Pre-fitting some of this stuff, figuring out where it's all going to go.
Got my Dash lights working too finally.LOL
