I do remember that episode... It was hard to believe that kind of crap could happen doing one a favor. You are right. Good ol karma...
Good to hear you got it back. That tail piece is interesting !
I think between using GOOGLE, and the searching of this forum, reading posts in the Drivetrain section, and clicking the links in the above post, you should have most of the info you need.
Someone here may help you out further. Be patient....
Sorry, I got off track. I would gladly give the Ballistic you linked a try, as I even went back to cancel my order on the PC680 after reading your post. I read the Ballistic size specs and that caused me to stick with the PC680 cause I have everything wired up to fit the PC680 size battery in one of the tool compartments behind the sears. 12x12x12 (16 cell size) won't fit that space...
I'm interested in that battery though. Hope someone try's it.
I've had the same PC680 in my Z for the past 8 years. I just bought a new replacement for it yesterday, because it finally gave up the ghost... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00249AL9K/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I bought these new and had them in my car for a month till I ran across the Recaro's I now have. I covered them with sheets and put them in my closet.
Forgot the brand (I think they are "DAD" seats). They are all fabric. LMK if interested...
