Hey James, what does your cover look like now?
I still need to make one for myself and trying to get ideas.

Purchased new rotors, brake pads, and some M/mirrors. Next, I need to order up the cooling system replacements. Hope to have this Ti road worthy by summer.

Nothing special, just the bottom of a plain black plastic box cut to fit over the battery. I'll try and take a pic this weekend...

The sound is a big improvement over the factory and as good as most aftermarket units. Still having some issues with trying to hook up an ipod to it (my 95 doesn't have the right cd changer cable that the ipod dock hooks upto...)

What did you do differently this time? I used your first write-up as a guideline for my 6" speaker install and it worked out very well...

I just bent some of the tabs in and only put in one screw and allowed to it hang kinda freely, I thought I blew out one of my speakers but I found out that it was just smushed against the bracket so I just put in one screw and let the side rest on the part I cut out and then the front just hangs down.

I got sick of trying to find my window switches in the racecar (I had left them hanging where the center console use to be) so I decided to make a panel to make things easier to reach.

The part number is #72-11-8-119-186 and this is the cover for the bolt that is located on the B-pillar, they are dirt cheap. Buy a few you well lose them or they will fall off...
