Does anyone know of a webpage that could give me insight to whether it's legal to have a wall in your car for a daily driver?
Are there any mirror modifications that need to be done?

I'm sure it's probably different from province to province but a heads up would be great [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Any wall owners have any stories about being pulled over and harrased about having a wall and or a large system being a visual hazard? [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]

Sounds fair to me. I heard some stuff that it might be required to buy those strap-on extendable mirrors that trucks with campers and trailors have.

I've came close to a couple acidents already just trying to pull out of a 45' angle stall parking spot. I then found my rear-view mirror(DD9515 made it fall of last year) and I hold it outside my window and above the roof to see behind me.
I'm just ghetto like that [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Iam sure its legal in ontario... sometimes you see vehicles like cargo vans that dont even have rear windows.....


Maybe you should invest in a rear view camera... [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

It really makes me beg the question why? Do you really need that much bass on the street? Do you even use it? I would never add something to my daily driver that would either inhibit the cars performance or the drivers performance in any major way.

It's not just a daily driver, it's going to be used fo competing. Most of the time this season I'm just going to use my girlfriends car to get around anyways.
