Looks much better than the first attempt I saw posted on TGO. The TGO picture looked pretty hacked up, did you get a new latch plate to fix it?

Holy underhood insulation Tony. That stuff looks like it's about be get sucked into the fan or something.

Anyway, I like that mod, but it wont work on TPI Camaros due to the giant airbox sitting right there.

I can't see your pictures Tony. Both with Firefox and IE.

I'm able to see them with Firefox. I really like that setup. Clean and stealthy. Didn't you do that with your GTA as well? I hate my ugly coolant reservoir. I wish I was able to something like yours.

right click and hit "view picture" then they will work. it's something new comcast is doing. i am not a fan.but it beets paying for hosting.

i have done this to the GTA as well, but due to the rumblieness of the engine the screws backed out and the washer fluid reservoir fell out. i am looking for another fastener solution.

Use a bolt with a nylock style nut. Very Happy Only problem I see is reaching the back side of your mounting point.

Negative.


You have to go "make picture public" through comcast now. I had the same problem. I can view them if I paste the link in another window.

They make it really hard now. You have to go into your online storage page and then click on the picture and click something like "make public."

That is the way mine is too. They said that they will contact people via email before they are converted to the new format.
