You really hit on the head, cut a hole in the pan, weld the bung in with the pan still on the engine, repaint over the burned paint, why bother. How about the top that doesn't fit over the roll bar just stretch it till it bends the dot fasteners in the aluminum. They had little regard for everyday customers, we were a necessary evil. They would not even fix my severally bent lower front control arms when I brought it down to SA to show them their design screw up.
