    So I'm so sick of stupid forum runner crashing while up loading multiple pics I'm doing one a post lol.

    Anyway. Main.
    This is 10x better than what it was.
    I still have the 6 fuse common positive block to go in and take away those last few stragglers.

    And don't worry, that loose lug is for the dual battery but solenoid had shat itself.

    Second is the second battery.
    Was a birds nest but in progress of running a single main to the rear.
    You can just see a 50A circuit breaker under the bonnet lip, and that 10mm cable runs to the rear.

    Mine is terrible the previous owner hard wired everything and obviously knows nothing about electrics have intermittent use of lights and stereo because he had used wrong terminals, conduit just dodgey, can't wait till this house move is over i get the garage set up and i can overhaul it all.

    Ps the loose lug is his idea of a kill switch for the whinch, hold it onto the terminal while whinching and if something goes wrong disconnect it.....

    Where did you get those terminals from Lucas? They are exactly what I'm looking for.
