Mines a 2.4 but I would imagine it would be in the same place (but I could be very wrong). There's quite a few posts about it. I pulled out the drivers side front speaker to get at it. If you look straight up you will see a green box with two harnesses attached to it. I think the remote aerial was the top wire in the upper harness (I wasn't paying too much attention). It is an orange wire with a grey stripe, about 6-7 inches long with the last 5mm (sorry, mixing imperial and metric) stripped to expose the wire. I just stripped it back a little bit more and soldered another metre and a bit of wire to it, then fed it up the A pillar and into the roof. Works a treat. [emoji3]

Thanks for that, mine is a different setup actually. where did you get the relay for the wiper? been wanting to do it for a while

Any chance of getting some photos of how its been plumbed?? Would like to know where or how they have tee'd into the main tank? I assume your 2 Aux Tanks pump back into the main tank?

No more Jerry cans for me!
Both sill tanks have their own filler, electric transfers pump and electric gauge on the centre consol.
Very neat.
I had to loose my running boards, but I'll have a set of rock sliders made to fit with the sill tanks.

I got mine secondhand off eBay for $15. There are a lot advertised there but most are a lot more expensive and all the ones I saw were used (unless you want to pay silly money). Mudstuff do a brand new one for £31 (about $54) but you have to add postage to that. The one I have is: no. 99 vw golf intermittent wash wiper relay 357 955 531.

Sorry Ken but my curiosity is what has lead me to asking this question:
What does your vehicle owe you so far?
It's so well setup and I'd like to know a ball park figure is if you don't mind sharing, if not all good as its really none of my business

If its only your foot, your ahead of the game.

Fitted a ARB twin compressor (CKMTA12) in the drivers seat box.[thumbsupbig] MY11 Defender 90. Apart from tidying up existing cables/looms/relays, nothing needed moving to fit it here.

Heading towards $50K in mods.
'It's insured for $75K. Scary when you think about it, but I must admit, it's comfortable, fairly able in the bush and I can now drive from A to C, bypassing Fuel prices at B.
No kids, and not many vices, just me and my critters.

I had to change the 30 amp fuse to my caravan brakes and power yesterday, on the road just Nth of St George, QLD, after my good mate fried it, with a make shift Anderson plug consisting of two bolts to his Dads 40 year old charger. He then proceeded to reverse the charger cables frying my fuse which of course is in the battery box, with Recaros bolted above.
I took the opportunity to rotate my two Recaros, to even out the wear.
Luckily I carry suitable large fuses as well.
Job done and it's nice to have brakes back on the van for my Tassy trip.
