Saturday morning - Ferry to Wellington 8:15am , collected puppy 3pm, collected Hilux axeld zuk on trailer 4pm, Ferry back to Picton 5:15. Decided to drive back to Christchurch 10pm ... I drove for an hour & half, then mrs for 2 on the kaikoura bends.. ran out of fuel at Cheviot (2am) :( 5 hours later, after boys and puppy had good sleep, Me and mrs no sleep, garage dude arrives, re fuel, head for Christchurch. Finally get home at 8am.

Saturday morning the wife wanted to go shopping :roll: :roll:
Wasn't all bad, I got to help her by some new lacy underwear :lol: :lol:

Sat afternoon was spent ripping the dash of the Isuzu apart ...
Mounted the switches for the Spots, Day lights, Glow timer override, Air Horns, wired up the radio, remade a bunch of connections that were just twisted and taped.
Sunday afternoon was spent wiring up the fuses and relays and testing.

I just have to work out how to get the cigarette lighter socket out so I can fit the last 2 switches.
