aTOMic, sorry for the late reply.
I just got the foam from a local foam shop.
They cut me off a square to size and I cut each shape out with a sharp blade.

Went over my mates over the weekend and picked up some liquid storage containers I designed for the car boot.



They are better than I originally thought and a bit heavier.
On their own they are 2.4kg. They hold about 1.7 litres of water.
If they all have water the combined weight will be 24kg.
Its a bit heavy and I doubt the A8 would notice it.

The main question is what to put them.
The basic fluids in a car is oil, coolant, washer, diesel and power steering fluid.
That's 5 out of the 6 containers.
I guess the final fluid would be water?

I'm open to ideas and suggestions.
