Thanks for the tip on the parts sources - when I get going on this I will keep everyone informed of progress. Good thing is the xfire is a just for fun thing, and it can sit in my shop for a while. With six bays, the shop has room for an extra visitor - especially a good looking one. While it does look a bit out of place surrounded by a gaggle of Miatas, it draws a lot of attention.

Let's see some photos of that shop Henry... Especially with the Crossfire amongst the gaggle of Miata's.
