Battery relocation



I can post pics later tonight of Rons relocation and my wiring changes. I added a 150 circuit breaker right after the Pos terminal so I can just click the release and shut off all the power. Great when storing the car or playing with the wiring!
I also have the switch you might need. I am not going to use it for Victor.
