New underhood fuse panel covers!
 
2 Attachment(s)
First, I want to thank two people.
- Greg Hubbs (ZIPPY02) - He got me in touch with the shop that made these.
- Amy Tobin (AwesomeSS) - Years ago she provided me an image of the Knight's crest she used for her own projects. I provided it to this shop to use as a custom image to this fuse panel cover.

Greg's Monte is so overwhelmed with custom touches and in some case the smallest areas, I missed a few when I saw it at the GM Nationals. When I got home, I saw his fuse panels covers and loved them.
I think many of us would agree, the 00-05 Montes have a crappy underhood fuse panel cover from the factory. I see Grand Prix guys who have a nice cover with a thumb screw and do all sorts of cool stuff, like a Pontiac arrow, us Monte owners, nope. No doubt, many people have made some slick covers of their own. I also found the labels on the covers are almost ALWAYS crocked on our Montes.

Greg's idea was nice and still maintained function (of displaying the layout to the fuse panel). I found when working with the shop that did his, his '02 and my '04 had slightly different information on the covers, but the shop did a great job working with me via e-mail until it was a winner.

So, first pic is the old look and the second is the new look. :thumbsup:

I knew I should have patented that process! :rotfl: I really really like what you have done, looks pretty trick with the 6th gen. Knight's Crest emblazoned on your data plates. So now I'm going to copy you and do the Knights Creast on one of my plates.

In all seriousness your fuse box data plates really came out very nice. A nicely refined presentation, and as you mentioned they are still viable in that the true fuse locations are readily available for their intent. You just know one day they will be needed for reference and viola, there they be.

You get my vote for the "Top Fuse Cover" mod! Well played Jason! :thumbsup:

Thanks Greg. Couldn't have had this done without your help. :)
