 While I was under the seat I thought about fusebox location etc etc, I'm not a fan of fusebox under the dash as they are hard to get to and you can guarantee when a fuse pops it will be dark & raining !!!
 I usually fit them somewhere sensible like in the trunk or behind the seat or under the seat which is where this one is going, I'm using the 9+3 Universal Rebel harness kit I sell as I like to use stuff I sell, I've tried all the different makes and for price & quality the Rebel kits cannot be beat !!! They are simple to fit and each wire is marked every 6" with what it does, foolproof.
 I laid the fusebox in place and decided it needed lifting slightly so made up a mounting plate from some 1/8" aluminium with 4 pillars on it to lift the fusebox 1.5"
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 Here's a shot of the markings on the cables.
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 For those that havn't seen one before this first pic is of a american fuseable link, yes it looks like a bit of wire but its actually designed as a type of fuse, Now I never use them for the simple reason you will struggle to find a replacement in England, I replace with a Maxi fuse or a mega fuse holder box as i've done here to protect everything, I will tywrap a spare fuse to this later.
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 Heres a pic of the terminals for the 3 spare circuits, just crimp the wire on and they click into place in the rear of the fusebox. I will be using them for fuel pump and electric fan.
 
 
 
  
 
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
 Here's the proposed layout, the Rebel kit comes bundled together for under dash mounting and as i'm mounting under the seat first job I like to do is to cut off all the tywraps so i'm left with just the fusebox and the connected cables. I will add all the other cables as I progress
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 Here's the cables I removed, will sort them out for fitting later.
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 I also fitted a pair of remote battery terminals and a battery cutout switch and a 12v power socket, these are in the pickup skirt side panel just behind the cab.
 
 
 
  
 
  
 .Its aweful lonesome in the saddle since my horse died.
