The battery relocation kit showed up today.
My current set-up that is in the rear seat area is just using a mega-fuse as protection, but I opted to go with the dual circuit-breakers this time. It should also allow me an easier battery disconnect when the car sits for a little bit, but I plan to be driving it more moving forward.
I bought a battery box, which is kind of over-kill for the smaller Odyssey battery I have, but was trying to sort out packaging it and a full-size spare tire in the trunk.
Option 1 - Spare in the stock location and battery up on the frame
Option 2 - Spare relocated and battery in the well
Option 3 - Spare in the stock location and Odyssey up on the frame with no box I can just cut my current Odyssey mount from the rear sear area and weld it down in the trunk.
With the box, I was going to mount the C.B. circuitry on the side of the box, but with the Odyssey, I'll mount them on a board in an accessible location.
I'm leaning towards Option 3 and saving the box for another project at the moment, as I really don't *need* a box for the Odyssey.

Hi John! That doesn't exist anymore...we lost some things when transitioning over to the new board software. Everyone is posting projects out in the open now.

I'm not sure if they're still made or not.
I have 4 doors, 3 fenders, a hood and header panel sitting in my storage shed at the other property. I know one set of the doors was a vent-window car, but I wasn't sure about the other.
The set of silver 83-84 doors I have has the regular full glass in them. Drug the DS door home a little while ago. Man, these doors are heavy...

Well that sucks man. I’ve had to replace one window in my 83 and one in the 85 TC (long ago sold) and both were from thieves that didn’t believe the red blinking led in the dash.
Are the door glass on these cars no longer made? Only ask is I know where a 85/86 car is that I could pull the windows out of if needed.
Not sure how I managed to do it, but I shattered the DS door glass while trying to fix the loose mount. Luckily I had a spare in one of the doors I have in storage. Just need to get it pulled and transferred.
Been bouncing back and forth between this and Sadie's Bug the past week or so.
Got the rear cage bars fabbed up. Just need to get the paint and get them into the car. Just going to pick up some of the 2K aerosol stuff in the 1Q paint code.
Need to get my battery relocation stuff ordered so I can wrap that up. I thought about moving it back under the hood, but I just don't have a place for it now.
Speaking of wrap, I need to also finish up the bullet hole patching so I can get with my buddy to have the top of the car wrapped.
