So, I'm looking at the rear trunk, and I have to admit that It's easy for me to see it gone.
I have a few questions to ask, though. I'm sure bracing is required. Does someone offer a kit, or have all of you made your own? If no one offers a bracing kit, it looks like I could bracet it up, snip out the trunk, then clean up the edges. Any hints? Thanks in advance. |

QUOTE(r_towle @ Nov 11 2003, 05:58 PM) It has been done, under the window, trussing the tube down to the suspension console.... yes. if you don't want to cut the firewall like that, you can also "sandwich" a plate on each side and weld the tube onto that. gives you the same strength without the hole around it. check with local club rules tho, might be illegal where you run ...
