i thought you were going to relocate the gas filler to behind the taillight... i guess its easier to just put it in the trunk tho...

this guy i seen in VA has his Gas tank opening in the trunk like that.. hehe you can look at it this was if you always pull the latch(opens the trunk) instead of pushing(opens the gas cover) you will not feel so bad.. i hate when i do that..

man joe... i told you to make sure your shop could figure out how to do the hinges for the taillight filler before you go cutting anything!
see...this is the problem with people today... they have no common sense! come on now, it doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure out that puting a gas tank filler in a trunk is going to expose you to VERY HARMFUL FUMES. had you some how figured how to make the TAIL LIGHT HINGE before you went and chopped up your fuel filler, you might have saved yourself some time and energy, not to mention the embarassment that your gonna feel when you have to pop your trunk every time you want to fill your gas tank.
we have a guy over where i live who did the same thing, and every time he goes to the gas station, people laugh at him, including his friends...
and the whole shaving your washers... unless you figured out how to mount them somewhere out of site, i dont think that was the brightest idea also. what happens when your driving down the road, and all of a sudden a big trunk splashes some mud onto your window... what then? you gonna stop on the freeway and pull out your windex and squegee and start cleanin your windshield?

this man brings up some good points. These were probably, in retrospect, two very poorly thought out mods, that will only serve to make your life harder in the future. The gas tank in the trunk thing is a VERY bad idea... if you or anyone you know smokes, you had better keep them away from the inside of your car. You might as well have relocated the steering wheel to the right hand side, the stick shift to the back seat and your headlights somewhere behind the front wheels.

Well, at least you have the whole wiper fluid thing figured out... kinda. Now all you need to do, is figure out how to breath gas fumes without passing out, and you'll be all set.

fumes travel on air molecules, which seap out of the filler... even when the cap is on. You will be exposed to fumes, there is no doubt about that... the real question is... how long before you can't stand the smell anymore before you move it somewhere else ?

ok now my question is that. when you fill your gas your going to get gas everywhere, its a natural fact. you put it in the trunk and its going to stink.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] im sorry bro, but i dont think it a good idea... are you putting a system in to... you be chilling driving down the highway and a little gas leaks out hits wire and your a rolling ball of fire..[IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG]

I said "filler"... as in the little tube you put the gas nozzle in. Another concern was just brought up... you will also be putting yourself at risk if you put a system in your car. I don't know if you heard about the science teacher in texas, but he left the gas on to one of the bunson burners, and when he came in a few hours later and flipped on the switch, the gas exploded because of the electrical charge in the lights. A subwoofer has a much more exposed power system, along with the amps... if your trunk were to fill up with fumes, you could theoretically ignite them when your sub hits hard (ever seen a sub glow when it hits hard ?... that's electricity). If these fumes ignited, that little gas cap wouldn't stop air pressure from sucking the flame right into your gas tank. food for thought.
