Re: Engine Bay Update
Nup, panel was bought off topgun on the forum (brilliant fit - although he is in the UK). Have put an el plate off ebay underneath (about $20). The pictures dont do it justice actually. Turned out really well.

Comes with a little transformer. Just a positive and negative wire. Negative straight to earth. In my case ive wired the positive to a switch in the centre console.

Re: Engine Bay Update
Oh and ive covered the el plate with a thick felt as an insulator seeing as it sits directly above the radiator and will probably get quite hot. Didnt want to melt it.

Re: Engine Bay Update
Yeah, would like to get the ends annodised blue. As for the fuse box, dont mind it the way it is actually.
On another note, made a bit of a mistake..... . The CF bonnet I have sits lower where the battery cover is. At the moment, I cant close the bonnet.

Isnt completely covered. Needed to enclose it for cold induction purposes, so method to the madness.
