Gidday Hemi,

The mats are removable-couldn't use pre formed carpet because tunnel has been replaced to fit trimatic and I don't think auto carpet would fit

Could you post some pics of the tarp
I've just finished a ute and have been trying to make a hard cover (not going to well)
From what I can see your tarp looks very neat and could be the answer to my problem.
Any information pics would be a great help

Nick , there is a mob who make hard covers for utes , try a search on the FE/FC website , someone on there had one made out of fibreglass.

very schmick looking ute! i am particularly interested in the fuel filler cap you have used, i have been looking at one from Earl's which has an outside diameter of 95mm (areo 300) is this what you used ? as it looks like it fits perfectly into the hole which is what i was hoping it would do.

they also come with the unleaded restrictor, locking cap and don't leak like all other ek caps i've had in the past :)

any info you can provide would be appreciated.

Gidday Sammy,

The cap is one of Earls can't remember which model- verrry expensive but a great product.
Had to cut internal lip from body and widen hole slightly then flatten mounting surface.
Try a motorcycle wrecker for similar cap!

thanks for the info, i havew had a rough measure of the earls ones and i thought it would be the go, the price doesn't worry me too much ($300 i think it was) but i need its features, locking, unleaded restrictor, and the hose fitting size .... anyways i wont hi-jack your thread.
