Default Re: ZR-1 Exhaust Cutout Project

I had Marc do the cutouts and I love them. But the way he does them requires removing the spare tire carrier. I have been trying to think of a better place to put them so I can restore the spare tire carrier. Your position is great although with the electric cutouts I am not sure they will fit. I will test it when I can. I dummied up something the size and shape or an electric cutout with motor and I think they can be positioned just forward of the "y" in the pipes and a hanger but need to angle down a bit to avoid the pass side storage compartment. --Bob

Here is what I have now and my thinking on a new position:

I also installed a rocker switch hidden under the carpet to activate them:
