I bought one of the above fuse blocks but I'm not sure where I'll put it. It is a tad big. Where did you fit yours, Steve?

I do have another distribution point under the bonnet:

Mine is attached to the winch solonoid frame, which comes off the fuse box leg.

Hi

Battery terminals and power distribution

I have run the main + lead straight to the alternator and the main - lead the same .

The extra outlets go to the fusebox and distribution block and the extra earth goes to the chassis earth point.

From the distribution block I can power my rear battery via a circuit breaker and other things suck as spotlights, fans etc

I am not sure where it is going on this car !

On my 99 i put it in the spot where the GEMS ECU sits. I next to the main fusebox might be the best spot.

I currently have that distribution block on the back of the battery box, but that may have to move as well if the LPG ECU finishes up going there.

I made this unit up for the rear, it goes in the spot where the CD player goes and provides a cigarette lighter and a couple of USB charging points.

It is currently floating around loose in the back now that I have no subwoofer :mad:

Just had another look and apart from mounting it near the fusebox as others have done there is also the engine side of the battery box, though that is a bit more exposed to heat etc

My LPG ECU is on the side panel next to the battery. I'll look for a pic....
