I've been planning to add one. Especially since it seems the tiny oddessey battery dies in a weeks time from the draw of the RFID ignition.

More work then it should have been, but it moves up enough for my wife to reach everything, and back enough for me to be comfortable. Just got to get the adjustable backbrace on, and belts, etc.  |

Congrats on the progress and milestone. How tall is your wife? Looks like a ton of headroom with your seat and mount.

Wing pics. Very happy with the quality, this is a super nice piece.   Was bleeding the clutch, and the bleeder unscrewed all the way and lost itself inside somewhere.... yep that's the end of today's work. The way the bleeder is setup is f@#$(@#&*$ stupid so I'm going to drop the trans and mount tomorrow, and install a remote bleeder, so I don't have to work in a 1 square inch space. Also will finish brakes and brake bleeding tomorrow, as the prop valve and other stuff should arrive. |

Do you have a picture of how you did your lower radiator mount? From some of the pictures it looks to not be mounted to anything. I have thought of mounting mine in the normal position and making a bracket from it to the radiator.

I'll take a better picture for you in a few minutes. The best solution (in my opinion) would be four upper mounts, but this works just as well. All my electrical wire came today, so really taking the trans and driveshaft and mount out will just give me more space to hang stuff properly. It all works out I suppose.

The wing is as wide as the tires.  |

Looks like the bleed on the slave straight snapped the hell off. Thats an expensive oops.  |

No real update today, waiting on new slave cyl to come. I did finish dropping the trans, and removing the old slave. Got the backbrace on if that counts.  |

That's a bummer on the slave cylinder. At least you aren't swapping it in a snow covered driveway in February when it is 15* out, like the experience I had helping my buddy replace his on his 98 TransAm. What a PITA.
