7. Remove Seats - Pulled the Front Driver's seat, to go into John's Sim set up, and got John's sim seat to go into the Porsche. This is going to be great. Many thanks for John and Rob for sacrificing their surplus to get me some firmer seats. It almost fits the stock mounts.... It's about an inch too wide, so I will have to run at least two mounting screws through the floor on each side. It will rest on the reinforced part of the floor, so that should at least stay strong.

12. Sway Bars
a. Front -- Got the Front Sway Bar put in yesterday. Took about 2.5 hours, not bad. It helped that we'd had the original out when we did the bearings, so none of the bolts were stuck. It didn't help that it only got up to about 30 or 32 degrees in the garage with the heater running. Made the rubber bushings a little tough to mount, especially since the bar is bigger. It wasn't too bad a temperature to work in. Warmer than working on Brent's Beast the week before. You don't really feel the cold until you warm up later. Add the Lindsey Racking stiffener bracket to the sway mounts. That seems like it will go a long way towards firming things up.
b. Rear
13. Alignment – needed after sway bars.
14. Fire Extinguisher to Harness Bar??
