Hi all just got to the stage of cutting and mounting the body on my X-5 has anyone done a rear Body Post yet i am thinking about mounting a post in the rear centre screwed up from inside the belt tunnel Any Idears

The vercro does not look like the best option here just the easy option

Or am i worrying to much I have just seen a lot of Pred Bodys comming off latley and i belive those were held on with velcro

:wtf:

I have one of the cell posts from the 2 cell side fitted to the rear shock tower to hold the shell on.

Just fit it right in the centre and it goes nicely onto the upturn of the shell at the rear.

Craig Harris used to have one off the tunnel upwards. Ellis idea sounds good though, I might do that myself as I currently use only velcro
