let me get this right you're complaining about the forced induction spool up noise? lol
Do the small door mod with a strut works a treat

haha ye its just so noisy.. started on my modding my stereo facia to acept my new rocker switches and digital volts display... since there flat and the facia panel is curved.. and since I'm bit of a fussy falla I'm going to add some filler.. sand it down till everything sits nice and snug.. no gaps and then prime and repaint it.. ye i know bit of an effort but i like things to be tidy/fuctional... also my led strips showed up so will be wiring them up in the rear and under bonnet when i do switches tomorrow...and hopefully finish mounting my solar panels under my roof rack and add a usb and cig socket upfront under my leds to power/charge my go pro and to plug in my 12v led strip/worklight. for the awning if needs be... will throw up some pics tomorrow...
Sounds good I have a heap of 12v work to do. My eldest is an auto elec which is a bonus.
Do those Carling style rocker switches fit in the three knock outs by the hand brake or do
they need filing. My awning light will be remote with a dimmer, its more a work light in brightness.
It will screw onto that yellow bar and with a few grommets and a merit socket hard wire it some how.
Have a look at the "COB" lights they are small and super bright, also check those bulls eye jobs,
I'm going to do my DRLs with the bulls eye like Clubby8 did a while ago.
Also thinking about mounting a small solar panel and a small battery behind the front of the roof rack
so the awning light is self sufficient, if you know what I mean.
solar storage under your roof rack sound good , i would probably have it on top so its working whilst in transit

The switches are to big for the 3 plugs by the hand brake.. but you could make them fit there with a bit of cutting..Originally Posted by threedogs

I think Mudski has 3 switches in the hand brake area.
I have that clock in mycamper, the OE is impssible to read IMO.
I have a triple pod ontop of the dash but changinging that,
I have a 52mm 12v clock, yet to be mounted
As for the solar working maybe only 70% if that.
I would of mounted it on top, it can handle a swag strapped to it if travelling
I mounted my Ecu-Talk infront of the instruments does not block any gauges or warnings.
but I have double din head unit
Your USB one I fit in the lower console area ,mine is a double Baintech job
On my centre facia I have 2 Baintech battery led monitors, and my light bar switch.
I may put the 52mm clock there also not sure yet
