With dry but very cold weather managed to get auxiliary fusebox and relays in position and wiring connections underway.

Concentrated on the front fixings today as it was sunny but cold.
Spots, fogs and number plate fixed in position. Some tweaking to be done as yet.

Slowly but surely wiring is getting done.
Decided to remove front seats to give better access for routing internal wiring. Found the "safe box" under the driver's seat.
Now know was the mystery key on the ring is for!!
