Question on the wood floor. Did you lay it in there as 1 big piece? Or is it several smaller pieces? Does it still open to allow access to the tire well? And did you stain it yourself or buy it that color?

Either stock mounts with polyurethane inserts, or aftermarket mounts for the H22 made by either Innovative or Hasport. Tranny should be either m2s4, m2b4 or t2t4
