Been working on a project, kinda insignificant, but one of kinds that I like doing. Basically it's more of an improvement and not just a fix.
The first pic, I had to add some plastic where the original cut out was. Using a cutoff wheel, I trimmed the outer edge off and it left this open. I used some super glue to secure a wedged piece of the extra plastic that was trimmed away. It's hard to see, but there is one trimmed piece sitting on top of the actual piece that will be installed. As you can see, I painted the trim piece just so the original light grey wouldn't show through. It's not perfect on the edges probably could have been a little more exact, but with the cloth it hides most of the imperfections. And being in the back of the car where no one will be able to sit anymore, I wasn't terribly worried too much about how it looked.

Probably looks better than what the factory had!
I did this a bit ago, but had the door skins off and decided snap a pic or two. The black speaker covers came off a Rampage. Man they had some good parts on those cars. I wish I could find another one to part out with a black interior and good door skins.

So is your interior the dark charcoal or did you convert it to black?
Charcoal for the main pieces, converting to black where I can. I would love to get a set of black door skins and then just repaint the rear sails the charcoal color and then I would be done with the interior, minus the trunk and rear seat. Still considering doing a sub floor to bring it up to the top of the battery box and also making some cargo containers where the rear seats used to be.

Which you would then put AR-15s in. I like the way you think.Originally Posted by minigts
Honestly, if I were to carry something around like that I would for sure do that. I should have enough room to lay a rifle flat given the height I need to reach to clear the battery box.

A gun rack gives you reason to purchase a few long guns and put them in the rack.

Just part of an ongoing movie quote battle between Jon and I.

Didn't that start with mikes gtp build thread with super troopers quotes?

Sounds good. I'll loan you one.
No way, this is GAME ON!!!!
Oh boy

It's on like Donkey Kong!?
lol I am all for it! I probably won't do it though. If I buy an AR15 one day, I may incorporate it and for now just ensure there is enough room.I vote gun rack put on the cage. I mean you are in TN and all. Would only fit the persona
I'm always up for a little Wayne's World. Sorry I didn't respond to this earlier, I would have retorted with something else, but for some reason this thread doesn't send notifications.
Yes and a good reference Mike, well played....
I think maybe so.Super Troopers is one of my favorites. I didn't care for Club Dread but Beerfest wasn't too bad.
lol That's an OOOLD quote, don't know the movie reference. But yes it is!
Haven't done much with the car this weekend. Had some other things to get taken care of at the house. Headed out to LA to get the car in a couple of weeks, so this coming weekend I really would like to get the suspension done which will be a replacement of the rack, the k frame for the tube k frame by Slowe Speed and the tube control arms by DJ Jazzy Elford. I pretty much have an entire new power steering system, so all of that will be replaced. That should take care of the leaks for the car.
I also will be moving the relays for the HIDs to the fuse block. Figured out the wiring pinout from their relays to the ones made for the fuse block relays. Should reduce the wiring by two major ones going to the headlights, not to mention the ground that runs from the kit. I'll get some pics of this stuff when I get done, but I did find out why my headlight was intermittently not coming on AND not coming on when the car was cold. Both relays had some corrosion on the relay terminal posts and one was REALLY bad. Kinda glad it was something simple and not a bad ballast. My friend had a set of HIDs for his GTP G8 that was blowing the HID bulbs every other week, glad that isn't me.

It's from the movie "The King of Kong:A Fistful of Quarters"

hahaha My friend tried to get me to watch that soooo many times. I should thought about that one!
Got the headlights wired up and tried to clean things up. Swapped over to some Packard terminal connectors from the ones I swapped to a while back. These seem a bit more durable, but I need to get another set that are made for 12 GA wire, kinda tight when crimping things. Not much to look at, but placed the relays and fuses at the top, the rest are from the conversion from fuse links, which was done a long time ago.

That looks great Jon. Your wiring projects are always inspiring.
