Good day

What do folks recommend? The self amalgamation type or fabric?
I have added an additional fuse box that will feed the megajolt kit. The fuse box lives near the wiper motor, it will also feed the headlights

I have been tidying up my wiring after many years of bodges by various individuals and fitted a additional fuse board for the driving lights and the kenlow fan supply. AES in the UK supply expandable braided sleeving which I found works well - see attached photo:-

I have just ordered this to tidy some of the wiring on the 9-3 where the original has broken up:

Hi Alan
I have got the same on my V8 only difference mine is red to match the car, :D :D
It certainly keeps all the cables neat and tidy.
