[QUOTE="Tony, post: 182363, member: 1"] It's been another year (lol) and I'm Pretty sure I'm about to lose my mind trying to find the perfect size holes for the XT90 plug that will screw to the bottom plate. I did have to make the decision to put everything in the bottom which I did not want to do, but there just isn't enough space left over for anything to be left out.
