    Was there any qualified auto sparkys there checking over the work or anyone highly competent in that area?

    There was a highly qualified person there but they weren't involved in the job. While it is a stuff up and I know it could have been worse but the work and effort was for a good cause.

    I hope your enjoying your rig mate. Get it up to QLD so we can show you some real tracks lol.

    Mate, where was the bare wire?
    The thing was fused so Should have blown the fuse out before catching fire.....
    All the wiring I did was protected in conduit, that is a mystery to me.
    I'm sorry to hear that has happened and really can't understand how....

    Bloody hell.
    That seems very unlucky. I didn't run the wires in the door but I'm still miffed why it didn't blow the fuse.....
