That looks awesome! Thick enough to bolt into?

Side note... Is that a dewalt pocket knife? I didn't even know they made such a thing. Is it any good?

Oh yeah, it's schedule 80 pipe, 1/2" thick. I have a couple parts that I'm experimenting with to reinforce the tube. I found a good place to through-bolt a u-bolt using the sunroof frame. I also have a 3/8" threaded rod that I thought I'd attach to a pipe clamp and mount it horizontally, providing front-to-back support.

Yes its dewalt, folding. Sharp as **** and very durable (all metal). $10 I think at home depot

Test fit

Im going to remove the master lock switch and clock and relocate my Auber gauges to that spot. For the right coin tray I will put the ultragauge. For the left, a 3 switch cruise control module from a D1.




Finishing up the woofers
