Thanks ollie 
tonight i have
- fitted driveshafts
- removed oem fuel lines and started to mark out where new fuel lines will run
- mock fitted braided fuel lines
- made a little bracket to mount wilwood bias valve
- drilled holes in bulkhead and rear floor pan to accomodate new fuel and brake lines
also managed to source a mig welder to borrow to weld cage mounts in, and have sold my corbeau revolution in favour of similar but slightly different seats pics when worth taking them

Was thinking of using rivet nuts also.... Best option for keeping things neat and easy to use, have you used a proper rivet nut tool or just drilled holes and tapped the rivet nut in?

proper rivet nut tool. I got mine off ebay and works a dream, you only need m4 inserts and they work good. Here is a picture of mine fitted.
