Yes, i found the wire that i need to disconnect before starting the engine so the alternator is nog energised. No charging

The next steps that i did today was to lay the wiring ready. So when i have all the parts, i only need to connect a few stuff and it is up and running!

Here are some pics:

To hide the cabels, remove some plastic:


Run the thick 10mm2 (=7,2AWG) wire trough the fire wall, from the battery to under the driverseat.




Run some extra wiring, for relays and the amp-meter.

Hide the wires under the carpet:




Place the plastic back.

Here is a vieuw of the wires comming trough the carpet, trough the existing hole for stock wiring.
I layed the rear carpetmatprotector up on the ends of the wires so they stay nice in place until i connect all the stuff that needs to be added to this installation.
