I put the power cables into a marine fuseboard... I also put a fused marine AUX socket under the bonnet...


SB, that's exactly what I was thinking and planning to change when time permits, would you happen to have parts/suppliers to hand?

Hi Biz,

I live in Liverpool so there's plenty of marine chandlers to hand - I just picked one from their odds and ends bin last time - about £5 I think.

I wouldn't submerse it (I'd been drowning if I did) but it's certainly been OK driving through fords etc. I also have a Sealey 36 LED lamp which my lad converted to plug in to the socket - a five minute job. I see no ships........

Cheers SB, was thinking of a socket high up, maybe by the aux battery box, so should withstand wadding...

I'll try online chandlers Thumbs Up ==> Guide - Inexpensive AV Modification

Biz - my front socket is mounted just in front of the bonnet sealing rubber and well above wading depth.

If you want me to take a photo later on, let me know. I see no ships........

won't upload - probably too big (+4mb)

Jason - send me an e-mail address. The next American ex-pat that calls it a "truck" is going to find out what 2.7 tons feels like on their foot...
