Interior parts came back from powder coating today...

 

Installed pics?

 

Reassembled photo below. My TTA is currently serving as storage for it's own interior parts, so I haven't installed the unit yet. A spare is in it's place.

 

That looks really good, did the plastic slider thingys fit in ok after the added thickness of the powder coat??

 

Yes, they are replacements from TDS. The powder actually provides a slicker surface for the nylon to slide on.

How-to tips: Get a 1/4" cobalt drill bit for the latch rivets. #12 bolts to reattach the latch. I hate electrical tape, it gets all gooey, so I replaced it with spiral loom. It looks cleaner too.

 

Now I kinda wish I had not welded my pulldown latch together...

 

I need a sheet of insulator like Dynaliner to install this latch, and I'll have a spare to sell.

 

Yeah... If I wasn't elbows deep in my LS1 swap I would be interested in getting a new latch.

 

I planned on rebuilding my spare for fun. :P

 

I too, am guilty of rebuilding spare parts just for fun!
