What are you doing here?
Covering up the hole over the ECM. Mainly to keep mud out. Later on I'll make a small storage compartment out of it. Next spring I'll put insulation on the underside and eliminate the large piece under the seat. Too bulky and it traps moisture and dirt

No but that 18ga ain't gonna do much to trap heat. And I can build a small storage box into it. Plus itll keep mud out way better than that piece of rubber.

Oh gotcha very nice!

Granted not much room for storage but it'll be good spot to keep insurance card, registration etc. Stuff I don't want in easy reach of strangers. Every sqft of storage counts. I plan to cover the entire area under seat before next spring.

Storage is at minimum so everything helps!

I never even gave it a second thought til you came along. You're honestly a good influence lol
You look at people doing things like I do it gives us all ideas. Problem is with all of us here there is no end to our upgrades

Wow it's been a very enjoyable day off. Got some stuff done. Put Stabil fuel stabilizer in all my power toys, got to use a few power tools, and spent time with the P1K. Other than with family, I can't think of a better way to spend the day.

If you're talking about the front bumper, then okay. If you mean the rear, you'll have to fight don for that. Cause that's usually all he ever sees of me.
That's because somebody's gotta take responsibility for pulling you back out of the mud

????? But why?

If you don't want me to ride with you.. you could have just said so! You didn't have to rip out your seats to avoid it!
Why what? I don't use them and they are friggin mud magnets. They don't clean easily either. Now I just flip seat and pressure wash the crap out of it. Eezy peezy. Takes me all of 3 mins to reinstall with a Phillips screwdriver.

Should have bought the three seater, it's faster too.
