T5 transmission crossmember ideas??

[agnes the dog]

I completed my T5 swap last weekend (thread to follow later) and originally decided to go without a rear crossmember. I am now doubting that decision. Since I mounted the transmission on the original bellhousing, the shifter is straight up and the rear mount is tilted. I now have the challenge of dealing with the 18 degree twist of the tail housing. Has anyone tackled this? I'm sure that there are some good ideas out there. Please help me if you know of a good way to do this. My plan is to get one of the aftermarket tube type crossmembers and figure out some sort of modification to the rear transmission mount (I have the original one that came with the transmission). Please let me know if you have any ideas. This seems like a simple task and I'm probably over-thinking it!

Thanks,

JJ
