Got an early start trying to beat the heat...

Now that I have the electrician's gloves, I got into the Traction Battery, disconnected the main drive cable, and removed the battery from the car. The hardest part was getting the orange safety cap to come loose. The battery assembly is also surprisingly heavy.





I then took a few minutes to trim back the edges of the Gen II Gas Door assembly I will be using in the near future.



Last for the day, I test fit the brake pedal parts and determined that a hole in the Firebird firewall needed to be made larger for the Brake Pedal Connector Bar to pass through.



Once that was cut out, I test mounted the brake pedal components for a fit check.



By that time it was getting into the heat of the afternoon so I had to stop.

I'm looking forward to the 3-day weekend next week!
