Single seat-base LB install with looms and connectors

[Zave]

@Zave I’ve had a look this morning and I hid the connecting blocks and screwed the relay holder to the front of the carpeted divider so they are all accessible at the front along with the Victron connector.View attachment 175351
Fuses moved to the left and the ctek on the carpeted board.
Various other fuses etc screwed at jaunty angles on the board also.View attachment 175352View attachment 175353
Not great photos but it shows that you can seperate them and move stuff slightly to create plenty of space for the battery and ctek. My ctek has never got hot. I do check from time to time when it’s being used.

Thanks for taking the time to do that bigsi.

I've spent all day on it and shall hopefully have it finished tomorrow.

I've fully committed and cut out the lugs for the factory fuse, relay and link holders.

Shall post some pics when finished

Progress from yesterday

...and today's progress. Everything is back together and seat back in. I even took the driver seat base and handbrake cover out. But quickly put it back again as I could see the weekend running out. I'm happy now with the 5amp circuits but need to get a fuse board to sort out the 25 amp circuits as there is still a big jumble of wires. The I need to try and squeeze the link connectors where I have space down the left side of the battery

Just realised I also need to stick a big fuse in between the battery positive and the positive bus bar, doh!

Finally finished so here's the last photos. I say finished, I may relocate the AC/DC charger... and add an inverter...

Thought I'd post a few changes. CTEK now roasted and gone. Victron B2B and MPPT added. Renogy 1000w inverter added below driver seat.

Are the trim pieces on the rear of the seat bases held in place with magnets?

If so, that's a neat idea. Constantly amazed me what folks can get tucked away in those two seemingly small areas...
