I'm going to clean out the garage right now so I can get the Camaro back in there tonight and take some pics! Making cuts for the roll bar wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Just apply some simple geometry and start with very small cuts and let the carpet go where it wants. Then you can see where to cut more.

After several frustrating hours with trying to mount the 5pt harnesses, I realized it won't be possible with the stock length seatbelt bolts. So tomorrow I will have to go pick up some new ones from the hardware store.

Also, I went to install my crotch strap bars, only to find that they are the C5 bars! WTF. So not only did Weldcraft "forget" (their exact words) to ship them for 3 1/2 weeks, when they shipped them....they shipped the wrong ones!

Looks really good man. I'd also like to know where you got the carpet and sound deadening material from. I want to do mine soon too.

Yeah I guess I'll have to get some pics then!

One to hold you over.. Took a quick pic a little while ago...

Oh and thanks for the offer on the TA door panels, but I'm not really a fan of them. Thanks though.

pretty cool.

Do those subs in the back allow you to store the T-tops?

Got any links to the sub boxes?

Thanks. Yeah they do. The driver's side one is by JL Audio. MTX also has one, but the JL is MUCH nicer.

The passenger one is made by Subthump, but I think they are out of business. I'm too lazy to google it....
