    :spy:

    Also, you're right to skip on Wheeler's.. they never quote shipping costs and you won't know what you're actually paying for something until you're billed for it. They want your card info, you order $49 worth of shit and then find out when you receive it that you paid $25 in shipping costs and you had no control of that, and no clue it would cost that much. In the days of Amazon Prime and other vendors shipping stuff for free, fuck all of that.

    Absolutely hated the fact that I never knew what I was spending until I'd already paid for it, and to me that seems super shady of them. I'm sure it's a nice way to add income, though.. pay $10 for shipping and charge the customer $20 after the fact and without their knowledge.

    I'm gonna go out to the scrap dumpster and see what I can find. Sadly, my hopes aren't high, we don't use a lot of thin stuff.

    Crazy what we throw away here! Recently saw about a 4'x4' piece of 3/4" AR400 in there. Had no use for it I guess

    Yea yea...VSC...
    Hasn't done it but 2 times so far. Wheeling at RRG may have knocked some sense into it.

    McMaster Carr does the same thing. But it's next day shipping, so you already know it's not gonna be "cheap".

    I'm lucky HS is so close, when I ordered my OME setup I had it ordered on an afternoon and it was on my porch the following morning.

    I wish I was cool enough to order stuff from McMaster. Not that badass, yet. I'm somewhere in between local hardware store and Grainger.

    We actually have metal that'll work fine for mounting the breaker and panel, just have to put a 90° bend in it, drill a few holes and all is well.

    Since I'm not a v6, have ATRAC, or any othe fancy shit, I have a gaping hole behind the factory fuse panel all the way to the fire wall. I won't have to cut any funky cut outs or a silly design, I can use a rectangular piece of steel with a bend in it.
    The mounting surface area should be about 12"x6" with about 4" turned down where it'll mount to the fender. I'll get better measurements once the panel and breaker are in hand and I can mock it up
