I was originally planning to do this for recent trip to florida, but decided I didn't want to risk losing a belt on the highway, even though it would have been a good test of 1000 miles each way.
I plan to look into the wiring some more this week, honestly I'm still clueless after scratching my head with the wiring diagram. It's like they intentionally left off half of it.

Nice!
Loosing a belt on the highway wouldn't be that bad; as long as you have a replacement belt and tools. You would just need to pull over before your battery was to dead to start it back up.
I wouldn't think that the wire would be all that complicated; though simple things can be made very complicated with bad instructions. I'm sure you could get a little help from some of the EV people on this site.
