Same for me, system is great indeed Thumbs Up

We fitted ours together so it did help having two there to pass the cables through into the engine bay.

The 12v cubby cover works a treat as well, got a couple of passenger sides ones left if interested Thumbs Up

A couple of questions for you both if I may............where did you earth the Aux battery? And the grommet you pulled the cables through into the cab, is it big enough to also accommodate running two larger cables through all the way into the rear?

I'm trying to copy this

some fantastic installations here Bow down

as i've fitted a new battery i was wondering as a temporary measure about fitting my existing battery on the other side , as an aux , not sure it will fit though Big Cry

could then wire up a solar trickle charger to the aux, just a quick cheap temp idea until i get a new aux battery and split charge system
