OK shit got Real Again!!!! These things! Seriously. Everything is PULL LIKE FARK and pop the clips. Everything is clipped in.
I have a Factory Nissan trailer plug loom to fit and while I'm there will fit the KO Gear rear locker override switch making the rear factory Locker closer to an E Locker in function.
I will do a separate thread for the plug and play loom install too.

In this photo you xan see that factory Sub Woofer. Much smaller than I expected. This is the location that guys are fitting a double ARB compressor in the Ti option.

The factory loom had a plug waiting for thr loom to plug into which is very bloody handy.
The Loom though was EXACTLY the right length.... another 150mm would have been nice damn it! It wasn't Free!

The factory Sound deadening is pretty cool. Like wrapping it in a quilt!

Selectable switch hidden behind the rear vent. It's a set and forget but if you had to turn it off then a screw driver through the vent to flick it off.

And this is how I packed up last night..

Here are a couple of shots of the clips used to hold the panels on. They are identical to the clips holding on the door trims on a GQ...

Interesting! How does each of those selectable options behave?
And why not have the switch in easy reach of the driver, Darren?
So this override switch is linked into the factory loom. It changes the function of the switch in the centre console area to select the diff lock. The switch at the rear is purely to switch between the factory Loom and the override loom. For the most part I will never need to turn it off again. If ever I do I can.
The difflock switch now functions on the same basic principle as an E Locker. On/Off.
Awesome, but it's not white. LOL
So things are piling up and I'm getting ready to start the rear fitout.
2 x 100AH Lithium -Check
RedArc Manager 30 - Check
RedArc Red Vision- Check
3000W pure Sine way Renology inverter- Check
250Amp isolator - Check
ARB Double pumper compressor - Check
Induction Cooker - Check
Bushman 85lt Upright fridge- Check
Plans for a water tank and running water - Check
There might even be The Kitchen Sink going in. That is rattling around in my head at the moment and I nearly have that solved.
I picked up a Bushman 85lt upright on FB Marketplace today with a full Shroud box which is a real winner and got it at about half price to buy it retail so a real win

Boy, that electrical layout makes me weep. Very noice!!!
So you went the Bushman upright. After that Bushman v Kings comparo you put up I'm very surprised. Just couldn't bring yourself to buy Kings mate?
I searched everywhere for a Kings mate. I 100% was buying the Kings and then cover the front in a contact. Kings have removed it from the market completely and all online links are broken. 8 went into a store ans they advised that they had a new one coming from a different supplier which told me they got done for breach of copywright or patent or something and had to back track.
I stumbled on this one for basically thrbsame price as Kings were selling theirs for and included the $500 shroud. This is a win. I saved about $1000.
Reading through three eyeballs Dazman, have you seriously gone electrical cooktops?

Well been a bit quiet and got a bit done. The electrical fitout has gone on the back burner and won't be ready for Christmas damn it but I'll survive.
Did a Mountain of research of an Awning. 270 and 180 degree were considered.
I wanted a No Pole design and there are a few in the market now. I have been to a few shows specifically to look at awnings. There is a fair bit of money in it and h7ge price variants between the bottom and top of the market. Sifting through options and figuring out China versus the rest of the world. This is thr biggest leap.
So No Poles.
Heavy Duty trusses (This is Clearly the most important part) and boy is there some differences. This was actually the most important part of my decision.
HD Ripstop Canvas.
Quality Bag.
I found the clear winner about 12 months ago and spent the last year looking for anything that could compare.... and nothing came close. Seriously.
So I have bought a Bush Company 180Max Aweninh out of South Africa. And damn! It's nice. A bit of coin but I truly expect to get 20 years out of it. The pain of the purchase will be long forgotten. Lol.
