Porterbuilt notch cover cant access airbag fitting

Hey Guys

I was looking for any pics , good ideas for accessing airbag fittings
As i have noticed that once the fitting are in the airbags they are too close to the notch cover and wont be able to access them from underneath

I was thinking of making a cut out so there is a view of chassis but it has to look good and neat ( as its going to go in a big show) and also be able to drive like that.

Any body done this

Here is a pic

Re: Porterbuilt notch cover cant access airbag fitting

Here is a pic not a great one but you can see the 2 airbag fittings above the Portbuilt notch i noticed after my notch cover got built the fittings are just under the cover and u wont be able to unscrew them

So now i need to cut holes to access them so i have to try and make it look like it supossed to be there.

a cover with i view plate is what im thinking but im not sure how to make it look nice so looking for some pics



here is a pic of what im looking at doing but try to make it look like one piece somehow

Re: Porterbuilt notch cover cant access airbag fitting

Make a nice cover plate in your sub floor and put it in with Dzus fasteners. The it will be out of sit when you put in the flooring.

How about some small motorcycle gas caps. Seen some flush mount ones.
