Battery kill switch
Having (hopefully) cured an electrical burning issue in my 1999 TD5 110, I'm thinking that perhaps I should fit a battery kill switch somewhere. Obvious location is under the passenger seat along with the battery. However, if you wanted to hide it somewhere, any other possible locations ?

Are you wanting a battery kill switch for security reasons or because you've already had an electrical fire? If you're concerned about another fire then you definitely need it to hand rather than hidden. I think as Landy Andy suggests - the cubby box would suit both needs. Defender 90XS SW

My winch kill switch is just on the front of the passenger seat box. Has been on the three Defenders I’ve owned without issues
