Took me quite some time but i finally finished wiring up from my Aux batt, to a "control panel" i made in the dash:

2x 12v cigi sockets on a combined 20amp fuse
1x neutrik socket on a 20amp fuse
1x dual batt volt monitor
1x stereo aux socket.
*see pics attached

I ran a 6mm2 to a "blue point" electrical connector then split off to my fuse holders. From there they run into the dash compartment to the sockets.

I also ran a beldon 8723 2pair shielded cable from the back of the stereo to the stereo aux socket. this cable does a good job at minimising interferance.

I ran 2x 24/020 fig8 wire from each battery for my volt monitor.

It is all working fine and i am happy the way it turned out.

Any comment on the way i ran the cables or cable sizes let me know.

Thanks to the crew for the info on getting the dash apart. I thought this was going to be a big job but ended up being the easiest bit!!

Cheers
Ratta

Tagging all the wires is a nice touch; also I liked your choice of fuse holders - they are what I call the good ones as they cover up everything.

We appreciated the pictures and nice to see the dash all back together and everything in place - kind of as if nothing was done - the real achievement.
