What's rusting?
Bolts? You shouldn't be seeing much steel behind trim? |

that's the stuff but in grease form , you can get it in spray can
to be honest I think your hard pushed to beat waxoyl in some places , spray it in the crack and joints then use a hairdryer (something not too hot ) let the waxoyl melt in to joints and wipe excess off , when it cools it will seal the joint and as you wipe round your get a slight coating on and around what your spraying (as neat waxoyl get be a bit thick sprayed straight on something ) looks like the rust patches you got on the pic are from drilling swarf maybe after something was added , hoover out after drilling or spray with anti rust if swarf drops to wear to cant get at it Last edited by munch90 on 18th Jul 2014 9:39am.

Spray version ordered
Thanks for the tip. Yep, hoovered everything we drilled. I will now be using the spray after hoovering on the rest of the install. Top advice. |

top job there, i really like the sockets you have added for easy access to USB and the 12v in the back, i can see that coming in very handy for camping trips and the like, im wanting to do something very similar but am thinking of using a BEP VSR for the split charge, the only thing stopping me at the moment is getting my head around swapping the OEM 110ah for 2 Odyssey 1500's..i think they are 68ah each or something giving 136ah combined. it should be enough for my needs but im hoping i can have a brainwave and figure out a way of fitting more capacity without using luggage space for the batteries.
top job though! i also think them brackets for the fusebox look really good. |
