Just make sure you get a good stretch in first before trying to take on getting in the pass seat. I speak from experience.

It actually isn't that bad. Once you're in you're fine. Its the getting in and then back out thats the somewhat difficult part.

Lancer, I already have a meth kit plumbed in, the problem is with the reservoir. We ruined the Greddy washer tank I was originally using and now with space constraints, I wanted to have a custom SS tank with level indicator, along with a larger overflow tank mounted between the engine and Radiator. Still not sure what I will be doing with this.
As for the cage, I can take the passenger side bar out easily enough, but the rest of the cage will take about 30 minutes.

Not that I am ever going to really do that considering the current situation, but that was my original thought.
