Question about AFC in glove box

[EvolvingGST]

Hey guys I am trying to make something out of sheet metal to hold my AFC and my boost controller in my glove box has anyone else done this?
Anything I should watchout for while doing this? I am still designing it...

I have seen them made for Hondas and Acuras that are a direct fit for gauges and a AFC. I don't think you should have a problem with it. The only thing i can see you haveing a problem with is it sitting in it's place and staying there. Let me know if you finish it or find the glovebox insert! then you need to post some pics!

dont use sheetmetal. ABS plastic and fiberglass are your friends

you probably already thought of this but definately make it so that you can access it if you want to do any on-the-fly tuning, and if you have someone on the passenger side forget about being able to see it because leg room is a hot commodity in the eclipse and the glovebox door will be bouncing off of his/her knees. You might want to think about mounting it somewhere where it will be easier to view when you are driving at high rates of speed, I don't know about any of you but when I'm doin a 3rd gear pull I don't wanna have to turn my head all that far to read the S-AFC, but this won't be a problem if you make it detachable so you can temporarly mount it for tuning and put it back later... just a thought I'm not trying to flame the idea at all, just trying to think of all the possibilites.
