I am sad to say the only update I have is that I modified my kick panels.. .. the stock ones were very hard to navigate the roll cage.. and since I am am not using astro vents... I cut out the old and plastic weldled in a 1/16 piece of sheet plastic. will be covered in leather..

Body Shop Jail is F%^&* torture..
