Im also keen to know how mush of a job it is to do and what is involved/ included in the kit? Rough cost?

Cheers

I went a bit weird and attached them directly to the fresh air manifold(the air manifold for cabin air not the engine). I used 3M VHB tape and self tapping screws(yes I know it was plastic, however it did the job).
If I had any talent I’d take a photo, in fact I will but I’ll do that when I’ve finished the whole job.

Time taken so far, four hours. However that was broken by talking with mates on the phone(completely unrelated to the job at hand) and chatting to a fellow Defender driver who popped in(Hi Allan).

Great bit of kit. Been a real journey trying to get installed. I was recommended a certain auto electrician, he had one look and said “Couldn’t be bothered”, that was despite my insistence I was happy to pay for hours on the job! He reckoned it would take days.

In my defence I was under the pump at work and had zero time. I’ve now some time so in it went.
The instructions do seem daunting however Tim has done a great job of making them very detailed. I read them several times over several days so my unconscious could have a think before my conscious fat fingers got at it.

Good Luck

Hi Dan,

No additional cost to the kit supplied by Tim at Traxide(sorry I cannot remember the kit cost,......I seem to suffer some form of amnesia once I’ve paid for something on the ‘Deefer’.

Wow. Time to find another auto electrician. A simple relay install would be a bread and butter job for him. Easy as.
