Aim:
50A power supply at rear of disco, fuse box running various extras (LED interior lighting, rear work lights, 12v socket and capacity for a fridge in the future)
Progress:
Ran the 50A cable in, decided to take it across the roof lining rather than under the Disco, I also needed to run in a few new cables to fix the rear wiper, screen washer, fog lights, etc. so put all the cabling in above the roof lining
Put a 4 port fuse box by the rear light assembly and installed 3 switches below the rear speaker:
Wired a work light on the back, but, it looks **** so off to eBay to find some better ones, I also intend to wire them into the reverse light feed
Put a LED light cluster in the roof too and wired that up to another switch.
Next job is to put a 12v outlet, although i'm going to look for something better than a cigarette lighter port as these always seem to shake the plugs out when driving along.
I also managed to wire my rear fog light switch to the brake lights by mistake
- turns out it's incredibly useful... had a tw@ right up behind me last night... a flick on of the brake lights as I accelerated soon sorted him out though
Just thought i'd post what i've done on the disco this weekend really... makes a change from all the "argggghhhh it's broken, help" threads
