Thanks for the tip..
I think what I'm going to end up doing, is mount to the normal location on the
wheel arch for when the roll-bar is not in the car, and then relocate it to a
point on the roll-bar, when I have that installed. That way, I can use either
location depending on whether I have the roll bar in or not. I was hoping to
have just one mounting location, but it appears that is probably too much of a
problem to try and work out.
Thanks again everyone for your input on this.
BTW - I Plan to take this car for it's first test drive either tomorrow, or
Saturday, so that's why I've been asking so many questions the last two weeks.
