Excellent way to go about it and doable for anybody with an ounce of mechanical/logical aptitude. With a little more understanding it's possible to make your own "improvements" to the original. The series 3 I rewired was not my vehicle, I was asked to help out as the owner was carrying out an extensive rebuild and he wanted some changes. Long time ago now but additional fuse box added so the extra lights/electric fans and the rest didn't run thorough the original 4 fuses and the ability to cut power to the electric fan when wading in deep water so you didn't shower the engine bay in water spray a loud buzzer would sound so you did not forget and leave the fan off once out the deep stuff, where a couple of the additions I remember.
On my current rebuild I want to add multi connectors to the dash wiring so the dash and clocks can be removed easily, always hated the way anything that needs doing to the dash is a pain in the backside on a series 3 and the way in which fixing one dash fault usually results in a wire being dislodged somewhere else and creates another problem.
hi
Must admit it was some years ago and took me weeks and weeks because I had never done a loom before so indeed just ensured I took me time
currently been adding aux fuse boxes in my lastest landy , know it’s a different model but thought the principle is the same and wished to share a few bits
have a split charge battery system fitted and that fuse box I fitted in the upper glove box runs the lower gauge panel I added, done it via a relay so when I turn the ign off it kills power to the fuse box and gauges , added a dual battery volt meter gauge
plus 1 ref the tools ,
here’s a few pics and of course like all of us happy to help where ever I can , have had to do an extensive amount of wiring in mine to fix a lot of previous bodges etc so spent ages looking for different companies so kept the links so can easily share them
found a,so very helpful we’re pin connector removal tools, battery crimper which is so great when trying to crimp 16mm cables
where abouts are u in the uk plse
Hopefully u haven’t nodded off, lol
the 3rd pic I spent weeks adding an aux socket to the dashboard , hopefully it’s not to easy to spot because I wanted it to blend in
