But damn I hate fitting wires. Everything looks so nice a neat until you start putting on the harness.... Id love to make my own, but dont think I have the patience

Posted: Wed Feb 22, 2012 10:21 pmNice, tidy undertray in the making, Not sure that you should mount the regulator/ rectifier unit so close to the ECU though as it usually uses the sub frame as a heat sink and gets very hot, too hot to touch close by! It may be ok but i would mount it well back from the others, just a thought.

Physically smaller, and runs much cooler. Will need an adapter harness to mate the different connectors, but those can be had in kit form.

It is a bit close, but there is 10mm air on the mount side of the rectifier, as it put the riv-nuts in from the "wrong" side to make some room.
