You should've yanked the nav unit and all the wiring for it while the dash was off, then you'll have a nice little shelf for the extra cans of slim fast.

I bet the nav weighs more than the insulation.

taking out a dash is much harder to do than changing the roof... like i said earlier the hardest part is the windows... (that's b/c i suck at taking windows out...

)

i love the weight reduction your doing its giving me good ideas for my ride. looking foward to the updates.

cmon, get rid of the seatbets..you dont need them without a seat

Tastycakes · 12-09-2007, 07:07 AM

This just boggles my mind. Are you too cheap to afford performance parts and or do you like taking a street car and trying to imitate race cars? I mean seriously this is sofa king retarded. lol

i dont know if your talking to me or the op? but if it is me i already have cai/IMG/rh/e + reflash. so i think i can afford performance parts, im just trying to get a good power to weight ratio. and if you are talking to the op then you might want to look at his ride because from the looks of his i car think he might be able to afford parts.

to break up the sound deadening material (looks kinda like dynomat) in the chassis....the ice freezes it and if you hit it with a rubber mallet, it pulls right off the metal...easy.
