Actually, I have a can of kitty hair on the shelf

Always happy to offer ideas. (See signage below.) Screws work great too!

The "bathtub" for the trunk is pretty much complete. I'll peel the protective plastic skin off the panels before having them black anodized. The RH side will be home for the battery, kill switch, fuse box, some relays and assorted other electronics. Should be able to fit it all behind the panel.

Your metal skills are impressive. Wish I had a bead roller, or you were my neighbor
