I've spent an inordinant amount of time wiring up the Blitz. :roll: I appreciate that not all of it will be all seen once it's finished but some of it will be. ;) Besides it was fun to do. :lol:

Be sure to do all that work correctly. I'm planning to steal and copy everything you do for my Zvezda truck. :D

Thanks Greg. :) It's pretty fiddly and time consuming stuff. Trying to work out where everything goes is driving me nuts. :?
