Bob!
That is a very great idea! Where can you obtain colored foam? White is the color I need. Probably a 1" thick by 16" x 5" would hold it in there pretty swell.

Hey, have you ever seen the Speedway Motors Race Catalog? They have some really great stuff. I picked up their polished aluminum battery box for the trunk. This box is a piece of art. They also have battery boxes designed specifically for the new Optima gel batteries. I just put in a Red Top Optima Gel yesterday. The old DieHard was 11 years old and still going strong but when I took it out and tested it and cleaned it, it was down. Somehow I feel better with a fluid-less gell type battery back in the trunk area. When I had my boat, I ran a dual set of the Optima yellow top deep cycles and they lasted forever in the harshest conditions.

Lets see, what else... Being a tool freak, I picked up one of those bleeder type tire air gauges made by Longacre. This is a real nice unit with a heavy rubber coated gauge (analog) and a nice high quality hose and a push button bleed down switch that bleeds air off slowly. Sometimes, when you have these good tools it makes tasks so enjoyable and easy you wonder how the heck you "suffered" so long without them. (ha Ha) The Longacre gauge is one of those kinds of tools. Perhaps gilting the lilly a wee bit but verrry nice. They make 3 different types, the difference being the number of pounds the gauge reads. All are in single pound increments.
