Don't know the answer to the question about moving the ABS ECU other than if it is level with where the loom enters the seat-box, water could ingress there when you wade.
However, you could get an under-cubby box from say MudStuff and locate your aux fusebox in there. That way you have access to the battery on one side and the underseat fusebox on the drivers side. |

How about using a YRM centre toolbox tray like I have done in both of my Land Rovers?
In my 90 I use it for the 14CUX ECU and connections:  Click image to enlarge In my 110 I use it for an auxiliary fuse box, relays and voltage sensing relay for the split charging system: Click image to enlarge I then have two batteries in the passenger side seatbox with a high current relay for winch isolation and another for connection of the two batteries for split charging. Hope that helps Steve 02' 110 TD5 Double Cab Rebuild Thread |

Do those center boxes fit in a Puma? Is there not something running across that stops them fitting?

Blackwolf may be able to confirm. I recall we had a conversation about it previously and he was going to try one. The only thing I can see which would be in the way is the back of the LT230 which AFAIK is in the same location on the Puma and R380 vehicles as i think they use the same rear prop length.

I moved all my bits around and removed the shelf on my old Td5. I can’t see it being a problem with the change to Tdci.

Unfortunately at present I can neither confirm nor deny whether these fit a TDCi, since I have one which I bought ages ago to fit, but as yet haven't had the time to fit it. 
What I can say is that I am not aware of any reason why it won't fit, and the LT230 is no higher (and the seat box no lower), and no further back than it is on vehicles which we know that tray will fit. I cannot rule out the possibility however that the folk at JLR have found some tricksy and evil way to thwart my plans to fit one. |

I can confirm that the Mudstuff tilting lid undercubby box fits into a 2009 (MY2010) Puma

I won't probably have enough space to sling it in a below cubby box, and I certainly don't have the space to put a seperate cubby riser in as I already have the FCX Twin Din cubby, and to get that to sit right I've left the front edge flush and raised the back by approx 2" so that it sits flat (makes the arm rest useable as its so small and far back).
Think the drivers area is about the only space big enough as I have approx 30 ways of fusing and about 16 relays to stash, plus woodway handset controller and alpha12x siren unit if I can fit it. I have an MTA 5 Module fusebox set up for this but its managing the cables into and out of it that will be the pig. North Cumbria Search and Rescue - Team Leader |
