Should have been green laning today but my rocklobster decided it didn't want to play and tried to shake the car to bits so I've refitted my old 410 box which is also much quieter than the rocklobster ever was. :)

All depends on the wire thickness when it turns up.[/quote]

just for those who don't know to calculate your amps:

Current = watts divided by volts

example 55 watts / 12 volts = 4.58A[/quote]
And the other very useful one is V=IR

Thanks Rob, wish SWOM would say that. ;) I had thought of a high top roof for storage but that's just ridiculous isn't it. :laugh: :laugh:

Added 1/2" spacers to the bonnet. According to my digital water temp gauge, I'm now running about 5degrees cooler

Thanks :) I guess in this day and age of tinterweb I could have just looked that up but brain was stuck in engineer mode not "modern human"

So this 20A slim wire I have ordered will be a tad heavy :cheer: so can look at even slimmer wire


Only a few shifts left until I can make a start at final fit of spots and liner .. if all the bits turn up .. fingers crossed
