I guess this part of the post is where I reply to PMs.
I was asked about the cage main hoop and a pillar bars so I took a few more pics and hopefully these are the ones you wanted...
As far as the main hoop, yes it does pretty much touch the body. I'm not sure of any rules that say there must be a specific amount of gap there, but I did get certified previously if that means anything:
Also from that picture you can see how the door bars are designed. They don't swing out. (The bar does pivot though so that when you take that top pin out the bar will fall down towards the floor making it easy to get in and out) I like the way swingouts work allowing you to get in and out of the car bur due to operate size/height the main hoop sit farther back than most which inturn makes it invisible from outside the car:
As far as the A pillar bars, they are pretty crazy... They ride down, hugging the pillar than due to the body shape they are slightly bent to clear behind the dash and then angle down:
Attention to detail is on an OCD level but I can appreciate it, I need all the space I can get and the stealthiness helps with the cops.
The last interior related question I was asked was about the separate fuse box and what its for/ where it goes.
Well that particular fuse box is for all the accessories such as gauges, fans, the NOS system, etc etc. Nothing nonOEM is wired into the sh*tty factory wiring harness.
Plenty of those wires lead to the relay panel behind the A/C controls:
Those guys are then hooked to the front "fire" panel:
Hopefully that answered your questions, if they didn't PM me again and post up with possibly some pics so I know what you were asking.
Thanks for your time guys.. The next stretch of progress will most likely be on finishing up the wiring for the engine bay wire tuck and shave.
Next up however will be some Galant updates since she's almost ready to fire.
