Oh yeah plenty.

Where are you going to put your ignition switched relay? You want as heavy a piece of wire to go from the battery to the relay and the relay onto your fuse box - your 27A cable will be fine, after that you will be fine with your 17A cable, you may even want to get a small roll of something lighter again. If in the future you ever wanted to load your fusebox up with more than 27A then you would need to upgrade that little link cable from the battery, via the relay to the fusebox.

Your heaters were only 3.75A if I remember correctly and your DRL's ought to be even less so the 17A cable will be fine - like over engineered OK!

I was thinking of using an old Jump lead... if I chopp the crocodile clip handles of, I could use that as the main wire for Battery to Relay, Relay to Fusebox. 27 amp cable Ignition to Relay.

My plan was to mount the new fusebox and relay neatly in the battery box, alternatively behind the passengers seat on the bulkhead.

Then maybe in the future when funds permit, I can look at installing a split charging system.

Discomania im really happy with your help thank you. I bought a small rear led work light that I'm going to fit next.

Can you think of anymore useful upgrades you would recommend that I've missed! Cheers Discomania
