Split charge fitting??

Hi all,
I am in need of a split charge system for my D4, so I have a couple of questions;

1. What is the best system and battery to fit?
2. Is anyone aware of someone who fits them in Northern Ireland? My auto electrics skills are not great go say the least!

Cheers in advance for any help.

Stu. Thumbs Up

PS - in a D3 the Optima Yellow Top fits nicely in by the servo.
I then installed the National Luna solenoids and wiring in there too, all very neat and out of the way.
Cheaper options are available - but I wanted something that also allowed me to link the two batteries to jump start myself at the push of a button on the dash.

Thumbs Up Traxside.
Tim knows the LR system well and is designed with D4/4 in mind. His after purchase follow up is excellent. Fixed mine under warranty when it stopped after more than 4 years.
