battery isolator switch -location

Post by djc » Tue Mar 08, 2016 7:14 am

I plan fitting an isolator switch soon, to give me some level of security protection (but it is garaged when not in use). Any ideas or experience of a good location on the SJ (soft-top) that is reasonably convenient for me, but hard to find and also not too far from the battery electrics??

What are you looking at isolating?

I'm planning to do mine soon, you don't want it somewhere too obvious, but somewhere that's easy to get to, maybe in the glovebox?

There's been a few reports in our areas of 4X4's being stolen for farm thefts.

probably not a good idea to express ideas about security on a open forum.
