Re: Mike's Kitfox IV rebuild
Lots of elbow grease, and the seat covers came out good as new.

Spent today moving the fuel shut off valve from below the throttle to the foot well, I'm 6'4" and found the factory location impossible with my long legs, It's still easily reachable but now no longer jammed into my knee.
The yellowish tinge you see on the fuel line is some clear tubing to protect the fuel line from rubbing. I also redid some of the fuel lines to run perfectly straight (Did I mention I have major OCD?)

Re: Mike's Kitfox IV rebuild
Tomorrow the Windshield comes off. It has a major crack that was "Fixed" with zip ties and RTV. (Hey it held...so good temp fix for sure)

Due to my size (Tall not fat) I'm going to order the bubble doors in Medium Tint, I'm trying to source some 0.093 Tinted Polycarbonate here in Canada for the windshield. The Acrylic windshield is over $1100.00 Canadian with shipping and handling, and I've read too many horror stories of people cracking there new acrylic windshield. Bubbles doors I'll just have to swallow the cost and exchange rate ($1783 Canadian for the 2 doors, install kit and shipping, plus there will be duty on top of that)
Anyone have a source for Tinted Lexan in Canada ? Found a few places online in the USA but shipping is always $300+ for $100 sheet.
