it wouldnt be so bad if i just had a real good templete for it thats what took the most time and a way better jig saw.

they are 295.00 for the one ryan has i wouldnt do the one i have for any less then 200 but i would have to get better carpet..

no build plans just get a really big peice of cardboard and cut it to the contours of the inside and trace it on some mdf then cout it out. i used a goodyear knee pad for the shape of the hole i cut out and wrapped it in carpet using contact cement and stapels.

i would say i proly put about 25-30 lbs of material back in but between the back seats and the carpet in the back along with the cardboard cover and heavy inselation thats about 50 lbs. the back seat (top part) proly weigh about 20 or more each its like a plate of steel in the back.

ither way i added weight from what i had before but it looks alot better and the weight will just help keep me from spinning.

Nice, you could have built me one...lol

Clean that bitch...just spray it down with a fire hose.

BTW...there are a lot of those for sale on Ebay, of questionable quality.

e3sean · June 26th, 2008, 06:55 PM

ya i saw on k designs they are like 300 plus 60 shipping and they look real nice. i am glad i did mine myself i wanted the compartment up front like yourse but i also wanted a 1 peice but i couldnt have both so i just use my spare tire well as a compartment.

shadowgames81 · June 26th, 2008, 06:58 PM

looks good man. Sure beats paying a ton for one.

e3sean · June 26th, 2008, 07:03 PM

Can't you put a hinge on the front piece so you can get into the front through the front...if that makes any sense.

That looks awesome - great job. Is it just the weight of it that holds it in place?

ryans88gt · June 27th, 2008, 06:54 PM

It took me more than 3 hours to install mine and it was premade. the one front piece took me about 6 hours to install the first time I did it. The roll cage...took me like a day
