plug and chug battery relocation kit? I would like the kit to consist of

(a) S2000 battery (OEM or upgraded 11 pound version for the nutters out there)
(b) Corrosion resistant box (aluminum? carbon fiber?) with smoked clear top and blackend logo
(c) presized cables with new high quality ends

Here's a quick photoshop - I was, of course, hoping for something that could fit right into the passenger side storage area.

now that I am really into it, let's also get some mounts fabbed up so we can put this 2000+ Renault Clio EHPS pump in the place of the battery (or see if it fits in the standard reservoir spot):

I've contacted a company that is interested in doing CF plugs for the sunroof.

Soon - we made some purchases that should help us get over the initial costs of prototyping parts and speed us along on our way. I have a prototype adjustable end link in my garage right now, but my tranny is blown and it won't be tested on my car anytime soon. I'm also moving to Austin as quickly as possible and that is consuming 90% of my time at the moment. I promise, we are far from done with bringing parts to market for the Legend, just there are several parts in motion that have been put on hold for a spell.

And don't worry - there is no exipration date on the coupons and I have everyone who received ones code written down so if you misplace your actual coupon, I can verify and honor it for you.

Would there really be interest in those? I wouldn't buy one, I love having a sunroof.

Dunno - I never use mine and wouldn't mind losing 50 pounds or so off of the very top of the car.

I am even considering removing that stuff and welding a steel sheet there. Not sure if that would help with rigidity much though.

Ditch the Legend and get something else if one's going to the extreme of removing the sunroof off a luxury car is my feeling.
