    This is my onboard toolkit - the DMC toiletry bag, spanners, sockets, screwdrivers, relays, fuses, and an RPM relay (not that I should ever need it as I have Dave's solid state one, but it could help a fellow DeLorean owner someday).

    Definitely not. I don't even know how I'd go about doing something like that.

    That's actually a really nice idea! (I also keep a spare RPM relay in my emergency kit. )

    That's a perfect use for that bag. IMO I don't think anyone would make the connection of that luggage unless it was right beside the car or viewed by a diehard fan, but certainly not by anyone who happens so to be in your hotel bathroom. After all she's your bathroom so she's already been impressed or about to be.
    Now you've gone and turned it into something better suited for an owner.

    Oh well. I'll probably make mine just to make it, then.
    The original tool kit was junk. No need to remake that. BUT, I have wanted to see a storage kit/toolbox that is the shape of the spare tire and fits in the trunk where the spare tire currently is. The kit could involve extra fuel lines, a can of fix-a-flat, wrenches, etc. I think that is a more modern approach.

    Yeah, I guess it's not an easy job.

    I like Alden wrenches if you do make something. High quality and very handy at times, but the cost is high. They are made of hardened stainless steel.

    I'd have to say that a even a repo with high quality tools would likely not be a big seller. For a cool looking tool kit that had a good assortment of emergency thingies...I'd likely pay up to $125 for it.
