now that scares the pants off me....mammoth job ...well done :thumbsup:
 
Alittle more work to do on this install as i have gained a fault..:mad: not surprising really when I am trying to combine Ctek, CBE and a separate MPPT into the equation.

Plus the fact it is never simple running cables from front to back.. without drilling to much l OEM stuff.

Really good use of what is essentially 'dead' space!

Probably saved you a few quid in sound deadening foam as well :D
 
Well, as some may have seen in another thead,

Water Tank

I have been working with a remio water tank hold 27lts and fits in the panel behind the drivers door (Image 1)

The tank can come as a kit, which includes shower head, water pump and all fixings for taps etc.

The tank itself have 4 outlets.
On the top:
1. Water fill
2. Overflow
On the bottom:
1. Water outlet
2. Drain point.

These outlets can be drilled through the floor in this panel or routed to suit individual needs.

My fill point will be in the 'B' pillar, just below the driver door catch keeper. All other outlets are through the floor.

The only issue that I have found so far is water level indicator..the supplier advised that the easiest way to determine if the tank was full was via the overflow pipe. So, the answer... 1. CBE(brand) sell water level indicator bolts. These are basicly drilled and tightened into the side of the tank.. giving you a full / low indication on and display.

For me this wasn't good enough so set about modifing a CBE water probe, like this..

CBE SPE ELECTRONIC WATER TANK PROBE SENSOR 600MM

The problem with this is that the top is much bigger than the thickness of tank(image 2)

Fortunately the top is adaptable, I have now managed to get a 450mm water probe down the center of the tank and link into my CBE 380. (Image 3)
