I've been fooling around with the idea of remaking the NMW battery / ballast box.
The one pictured is the first dry run. I'm going to change the measurements a little to make the end pieces come out flush with the bottom edge. Other than that, looks to be dead on.

I may do a limited run of these if there is any interest.
Let me know. Price will probably be around 125.00 to 150.00 unpainted.

I think you'll see more interest once a few guys get get a better sense of the finished product.

If you guys want NMW stickers on the box, I bought some over here:

Some of you may have noticed Day2SpeedShop Dan was one of my resurces for some of the NMW information I posted on the &quot;What Color Should Tow Tabs Be&quot; thread.

Today is the last day to order a battery box. I will be sending the order in at the end of the day and have them cut. It may be a while before I do anymore of these, if then.

Thanks
