99 Club Car DS
Figured I'll show the progress I've made on my '99 Club Car DS that I got for free and ran perfectly. It's got the FE-290 motor and had the factory rear seat (not a flip-flop). We use cruise around the neighborhood, mainly back and forth to the pool, but love it. Here's what it looked like when I got it.
Since getting it, I've done a lot of work to it. So far, here's what I've done: CPP Machined driven clutch Torque Spring in driven clutch Rebuilt Drive Clutch Tiny Tach Light Kit tinted windshield 5-panel rearview mirror adjusted the valves, replaced all filters, oil, plug, etc |

Re: 99 Club Car DS
Before Christmas, I installed an Allsports Super Sport 6" A-Arm lift, 23x12 A/T tires, SS 212B wheels, and an add-a-leaf in the back for more support. I opted for the add-a-leaf after hearing how stiff the HD springs were.

Re: 99 Club Car DS
After the lift, I decided to paint it all black, install speakers, radio, and dash, which I'm still working on, but here's where it stands now.
Painted the body with Dupli-Color rattle can Universal Black and Clear Coat. I still have to paint the top, but I need some warmer weather Added 6-1/2" Polk Speakers (model DB651s) mounted on speaker pods Replaced the floor mat with a rubber diamond plate mat from allmats.com Ordered a Stretch Plastics black dash with radio cut-out. Once that arrives, I'll install my Sony head unit and put the front cowl back on. I also got a Blue Sea fuse block that I plan to run through a relay to the ignition, but I haven't decided where I want to mount it yet so I've still got to knock that out. Next, I'm planning to add: Grant steering wheel (ordered it, should be here by the weekend) Seat covers - still trying to decide if I want all black or a black/white, black/red, or black/gray combo. |

Re: 99 Club Car DS
Cart is looking good. I am wanting to mount a fuse block on my cart. Have you mounted yours yet? If so where did you mount it and how did you run the wires? Did you run them from the battery or from the ignition switch? Could you post a pic?

I don't know how to weld, so I cut up some sheet metal and made a frame to hold the fuse block and mounted that to the golf cart frame. It's nothing fancy, but it does the trick. Attached is a pic of the setup. As for wiriing it, I just used a multi-meter to determine which post on the ignition got power with the key switch so I could hook the relay to that. Then for wiriing the relay, I just followed the diagram on the relay package... it's very straight forward. I got the relay at Advance Auto for like $5-7. |

Re: 99 Club Car DS
Here's how the cart looks now after finishing painting the top and adding under-cart lighting.
I just ordered black seat covers with charcoal stripes to finish it off. |

Re: 99 Club Car DS
This pic shows the dash and radio installed, how the speakers are mounted, and you can see the diamond plate floor mat.

Re: 99 Club Car DS
I like the look and I have the same club car. Can you please tell me what kind of paint you used? and how you applied the paint? Did it take a lot of sanding? Thanks for sharing the photos.
