Battery Den Cover
Does anybody have a good source for a flat "battery den cover" that covers the battery den, but the fuse box cover still shows?
I have seen the carbon fibre version that covers the whole area (like Ken King sells), and that is not what I want.
I have seen the ones that Mid America sells (and several other vendors), but they have holes in them that I don't like.
The ones like GBVETTE is what I am looking for. Maybe SULLY and STUZVETTE has them also, but I am not sure.
Anybody?

Tom,
I'll be glad to send you a full size pattern off mine if you can't find one. Mine is cut from 1/8" fiberglass sheet. The opening around the fuse box cover has been enlarged a little to clear the CEC chrome cover on it. Let me know.

Thanks, Gary, I have got a pretty good lead on one, and (of course), I will probably modify it, customize it more, give it an exotic paint job, spend a few hundred dollars on it, install it, then change my mind and start over!
I'll let you know how it goes! Thanks for the offer.

I guess they have the holes for ventilation, but I really don't know what needs ventilated.
