Its clear at age 20 you cant see the satire in my statement, hence the smilies at the bottom.

I'll be honest as you have been with me. I think that what you have done looks sh!t!! There, are you happy :( :( :(

Cant think of anything more dangerous than having a 200 amp cable on the dash, mind you, you have a fire extinguisher to put the fire out :(

no point having a switch for the fire extinguisher 20" away from the fire extinguisher.

and sprocket, mr glass half empty was a joke, you were saying that it was a silly idea having a switch so far away for a fire extinguisher and i havnt even got one. So i was saying dont jump to conclusions n be so pesimistic. But thanks for saying my work looks poo mate, id say something back to you but it will probably sensor every letter. and everything is safe and grommeted, 200a cable aint touching or wearing on anything, alot safer than having it externally.

grow up.
