I found one in mine, in the bulkhead just beneath the water tank for the engine....job done!! If not you can drill one, providing the other side is clear wiring / fittings etc. If you do that don`t forget to cover the metal with a grommet, otherwise sooner or later there will be a short and your beloved chariot will be toast...not good :cry:

What???

I beg to differ on this one I`m affraid - I do this for a living and providing it`s done properly there is absolutely no reason why not to do this
