That's a terrific job Pete, and I mean that most sincerely.

Like the guys say, it looks neat enough to be factory (dont we all wish that!).

Q: Where did you put the fuse and relay box, as they are quite bulky!

Nice hidden wiring too!

Cheers,
Tricky
Tricky I cut off the honda and mini fuse boxes along with a lot of wiring and have a new smaller fusebox in the passenger side parcel tray with the honda computer and main relay its not so neat but it works and is hidden .mini regards peter.
