little steps
Well, got the grill in final mock-up so I figured I'd grab a pic, (corners weren't done in the pic) Now I've got to blow it all apart and paint it then hopefully get it to line up all over again.
Grabbed a pic of the custom dash wiring, all came up fairly neat just got to wire the rest of the car to it......lol
Also took a pic of all the wire ready to go, even with a discount it came to about $300, should have a bit left over though, which is lucky cause I think the person who wired my Lux was drunk or on medication when they did it so it will get some attention after the Val is finished.
Also mounted the ignition and MAP on the fire wall, its starting fill up inside the engine bay but so far I've managed to keep everything compact and it should still look neat enough even once the wiring goes in.
I posted a Q in the general tech section but no one posted any suggestions so I'll throw up some ideas I was thinking of:
The pic shows a car with a cage, I'm still not going to put a cage in but the idea of a straight bar running across from piller to piller just behind the seat looks like a possible solution for me to run a 4 point harness while keeping the back seats functional.
The other idea I had was inspired by a BMW convert I saw that had the shoulder restraint anchored to the seat. This to me suggests that there is provision in the law to have the seat act as the seat belt attachment. Of course the only person who can really clear this up for me is an engineer but any comments from you guys would of course be welcome.
