    Ahhhh, yep. That’s also my plan with the outer skin. Ideally the tubes would just be the frame, and the skin would countour the cab really well to minimize shit getting in.

    @EatSleepTacos I have this plug for the bottom of the cab that I had gotten for a spare. You are welcome to it if you wanna try it. Just give me your address and Ill get it shipped out ASAP.

    Do you have calipers? Can I get a diameter of that hole, and another measurement outside/outside of the skinny flat around around it :gossip:
    I have a solution for you

    What’s the diameter on that? If that fits I would definitely take it! I think it may be small though.
    That’ll come once drivers side makes more progress.
    No, I need to get some :(

    @EatSleepTacos has asked me to tone down the shananigans in the tube door diy thread. I have since deleted my posts
