Quality product. Easy to install, 3 mounts that screw into 3 open holes. Takes longer to find the holes than to install it.

I know everyone sees a engine cover. I see a spot to cook, reheat, defrost, and keep the coffee warm. Nothing some rivet nuts and a couple small cooking racks won’t fix. Gonna thermal it tomorrow. See what temp she gets up to.

I did paint mine, drilled out the mounts and added m6 rivet nuts for my thumb screws.

Thanks again for a out of the box product. Definitely gonna come in handy!

Doesn’t the hood cover the engine? As far as a cooking table, an Ozark Trials aluminum folding camp table is probably a lot cheaper and more functional.

Not when it’s open.

I plan on cooking on it while I drive. Lot of folks do it. That’s where something in tin foil would be put on the cover. For cooking this will work just as well as my rear table for the jetboil setup but won’t take up any extra room.

Maybe call it the motor table.

Other than the 2.7 cutout into it I dig it.

That would look a lot better without the stickers, but...to each, their own!

Don't worry - The heat under the hood will likely change that soon enough.

I like to acknowledge the companies I support. I hate stickers on the outside. So I find a way to work them in. This build, they’re under the hood. If a couple get messed up will make some fun out if it about the sticker quality.

I get it. I put mine on my toolbox. It just looks really cluttered, so you covered up the cluttered engine bay with something to make it look clean, then made it more cluttered.

Haha, Wow! You both just brought back a lot of fond memories. Worked for the Arizona Highway Dept as an engineering aide on a survey crew in 1971 and 72 up in Arizona’s White Mountains. That was standard procedure to warm up lunch.
