P500 Trigger's P500

Could you post the dimensions, materials used and perhaps some close up pics in and out?

Pretty easy build if your handy with wood. Only put 1" Dense Foam on top. Rounded edges of wood with sander. Best black vinyl available at JoAnn's Fabrics. All joints screwed and glued. Capped bottom with masonite. Put false bottom in to hide fastened straps. Relieved back edges with 45 deg. angles so seatbelt latches still had free movement. Dimensions are to long point of angles cut at 22 1/2 deg. Put two roller latches inside, you have to jerk it pretty hard to get open.

Wow, I love it. If you didn't copyright that, may I borrow the design?

Have at it Monte glad to help. All of that was per your request anyway. If you come up with anything to make it better let me know.

Thanks a lot, will do. Mama's a bit corn fed (tell her I said that and I'll swear you're a liar) I think I'm going to find something the same dimensions and stick it between us to see how we fit with it first. But I sure hope I can make it work. It looks good, is practical and the fabrication is top notch. Great job!

Tried going that route myself. Use something existing and try to convert it for this application. Ammo can was as close as it came...and I won't tell.

Been carrying this pic in my phone for a while. Figured I'd post it here so I can get rid of it. Looked pretty sweet in chrome but wouldn't have been the right look for this P5. Hand bent the diamond plate on rails and bed. Had it sprayed with Line X. Was way more expensive to have done than rattle can route but nothing sticks to it now. Made it more ridged too.

Just wanted to add a couple pics of how it ended up.

Looking very good trigger. I like that fire ring that's proudly displayed too. Have you already installed after market skids?

Lol! You just had to throw that in didn't you?!
Trying to make me spend more money and roll around on the garage floor.
With friends like that...now you got me thinking about it again.

No, really I asked you that because it looks like you have a skid coming up over the green plate you made for the front???

Mmm hmm...that's the plow bracket.

Hey, I didn't know. So if you ever did do AM skids, would that bracket interfere?

Maybe, that's why I've been holding off.
With the skid plate and plow bracket already on, it would probably take some innovating to make it work.

Just updating the pics.

Where did you get the cool Honda glove box?
