[QUOTE="jeepintn, post: 7426801, member: 569029"] well, another day and another handful of hours getting seemingly small stuff done, but it all has to be done and it all takes time, but anyway. today i did a handful of small things i had to do, including cutting out the hole in the rear d eck for the port to fire through, running the grounds for the rear battery to the frame rail underneath the trunk floor and fabbing up a fuse-holder bracket for under the hood and getting the power wires ran to them from the battery. on to the photos... taping the cutout through the rear deck and doing the cut...
