Wow, they look a lot sturdier than some connectors for sale through catalogs! Good job on those for sure.

thanks alot guys.... it was alot of work, but worth it...

it was scary cutting big holes in the floor pan... all the contours make it hard to measure..
but they turned out good... ill try to post some pics from up top eventually..
