I looking to hire a trusted fabricator to weld in a replacement front trunk (air conditioning hole) and a new battery tray. I'm in Chicago but I will travel to NW Indiana or the SW Michigan area.

Happy to learn if someone is willing to teach me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

Do you have the floor to weld in?
Is it just the battery tray or is it deeper problem?
Are you in Chicago or suburbs?

I have not ordered the floor pan yet. There are two sizes available one is partial, and the other is the whole floor. Auto Atlanta has the parts listed.

As for the battery tray, I believe that is all that is at risk. There might be one more small patch just below the tray. There is a hole in the center of the tray. Below that hole is metal, but it feels soft.

The car is in Mount Prospect, IL.
