[QUOTE="nineball, post: 6446873, member: 585829"] well its been a while but i only have a small update. i went to install a pop-off valve and found that my airbox was cracked which turned into a "while i am in there" project and a couple thousand dollars of parts. the car is much better for it though. on to the minimal updates... the box is done and i drilled the pair of holes to bolt it to the seatpan. as we speak the box and the rear parcel shelf / seat back piece is at the upholsters getting new life. i needed to cover the box and i wanted to get rid of the holes in the parcel shelf so i did it all at once. i won't be getting these pieces back until after the 15th. this is what it looks like now with the parcel trim removed. [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4880.jpg[/IMG] rubber liner was removed and surprisingly the padding underneath was in perfect condition. [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4881.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4887.jpg[/IMG] for those wanting to do this, or just remove the factory stuff, the rubber is only held on by some push-type clips/pieces of metal. be careful though when working with this as they have one hell of a point on the end. [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4882.jpg[/IMG] next i cleaned everything down with some rubbing alcohol and put down a layer of damplifier pro [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4884.jpg[/IMG] i had some secondskin overkill (closed cell foam) left over and it was just enough to put a layer down over the damp pro. the white in the pics is from the rubber gloves i was using. since overkill requires a glue to be applied (i use 3m super77) and i don't want to shave the hair around my wrists again gloves are a must.
