Hi Lance,

Apart from the issues mentioned by the other guys (number of ccts, relays, fuses, etc), another thing you might want to consider is the location of the panel in the DRB.

I wanted mine out of the way of water (some early DRB's had the panel on the flat sheet metal just under the rear of the front clip - guess where water off the windscreen went ?). So I decided on mounting it on the frame as shown in the following pic. Some of the later DRB's had it located similarly, but further forward, so that's where I started. But after upgrading to the "deep twin nostril" option, I found that I had to move it further back & up the frame to clear the nostril - even then, the space was limited, so I ended up making my own very narrow panel out of "c-section aly extrusion" - 2 x Narva 6-way fuse blocks in the "c", & 6 x Hella relay bases bolted to the side. It just clears the nostrils width-wise, but could handle a few extra relay bases & another 6-way fuse holder length-wise.

BTW, regarding water entering the front compartment from the windscreen, I made up a small curved barrier which runs across the flat f/glass section under the back of the front clip - this diverts water to each side & down into the wheel wells.

Hope this helps a bit.

Kind Regards,

Peter D.
