Wiring harness done 
unfortunately we had to pull down the long ranger 180l tanks believe it or not he sending unit broke inside and the metal arm was loose inside 
We had to swap the metals sticks on the sending unit because it was indicating upsides down anyway problem resolved this was beneficial since I had space to play with the wire
Now we will finish the bracket for the cabinets before putting back in place
I also installed the CB and did the wiring for the heating seats using a old plug for the power window that I don’t have
Moving the Hood cable 2 holes I was able to reused the space to mount the bracket
And small thing I found a perfect match for the road

I had the chance to hook up temporarily the front fogs on a independent switch for day drive and finished the antenna set up
I was not happy with the bumper taillight light they were clear and sprayed them red along with a 2 inch orange flasher
I think I will only use the switch pro for interior electrical outlets … decision decisions

Tommy, what are you doing inside the doors for insulation? Both sound and temp.

This could be a very interesting option! I will test the SD this summer and see how loud it feels
What about heat insulation? You probably need it more than me.This could be a very interesting option! I will test the SD this summer and see how loud it feels
Or I guess the 5 KW Espar will keep the place toasty. We have one in a Sprinter van and in 12 min brought it from 18F to 52F.

I have purchase some sheep insulation for the quarter panel but that's for in a while until I finish up the real estate cabinet and for now it's a puzzel the 5KW it also a challenge to mount too... Honestly I am still thinking about the fuel line T for the espar and wabasto cook top for now should have more info during the week-end as we are planning to fit water tank and line too

Recommend you spray this in! Much faster and much easier.

Windshield washer bottle goes there unfortunately. Have it out for now because the pump was dead. Should have known considering I have the same engine bay. How about here then?

Nothing major today I relocated the espar fuel pump closer to the other side now need to get a T to make a junction between the fuel tank and wabasto cooker. Also thinking about an actual hermétic way to get fuel out don’t like the plastic line provided
