    Electrical Ignition Cylinder

    Hey guys. I've been having a little problem with my power windows/trunk release.

    Fubar'd horn

    Whats a fair price for these?

    Ok, I ran this by Dagger so I hope its ok. Please don't let this open a can of worms as Dagger was nice enough to talk this through with me to try and make it as least offensive to the rules as possible and I'd hate for it to come back and bite him or me. I've been trying to unload these...

    Billet Optima battery tray installation ?

    Was looking at billet optima battery trays similar to this and I was wondering just how easy they were to install. Do I need to find a way to fill in the gap by the frame rail? The only pics I could find were of cars that had had that spot welded up and painted.
