Silver Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 619 Registered: Apr-07 | Rob, I sure can try to find it. I've read more than one, so hopefully I can. Give me a bit. Common sense tells you a heavy object will mess you up in a collision- even collapsing your seats as it comes forward. God I hope I can find the article. |

Gold Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 3565 Registered: Jan-06 | You got done fiberglassing which leaks, in the box or the trunk? Reason being it gets louder when you open the trunk is because you let the cancellation rear wave out, allows more of the front wave to hit your ears. This is also one of the reasons when you open your windows it also gets louder, all about cancellation. Polo.. |
Silver Member Username: TejcurrentPost Number: 621 Registered: Apr-07 | Still looking. Colby- exactly. My wife's car got hit a year or two ago, and her car was totaled. The cd player that had been installed came right out of the dash and ended up in the back- and she was rear-ended. I'll see if I can't find something.. |

Gold Member Username: Safe_crackerChicago, IL US Post Number: 3585 Registered: Jan-06 | ^^^ Ryan, that would be a freak accident! The concentration of fumes in the tank would be high enough not to allow ignition unless under extreme pressure and heat. I know a little about explosives and matter of fact I use to change out fuel pumps with a lit cigarette in my mouth and never had a problem... ![]() |
