steel cabled zipties are likely stronger than many 13 year old OE fasteners.

And most cars don’t even have battery tie downs, at least he had a rag and bracket, better then nothing and if he spills any acid, the rag will soak it up.

As for no back seat…who the fuck cares?

common now, you would think police with all their Intel would know that a 240sx was sold with a bag of zipties in it…  
honestly…you think 240sx,200sx,180sx,silvia any really and the second thing you think of is zipties.  
fuck bing even posted when zipties were on sale at canadian tire lmaoo

other then the fact the car was speeding that guy is my muhhfukkin her0  
lool smelt like gas with tires in the back, imo thats the best you can get inside a car.
