Re: [DML] Battery Cut Off Switch

["Chris Parnham" <chrisparnham@xxxx>]

Gary / list,

This has come up before. I used a marine, type black plastic one with
detachable red handle. This I mounted in the top right hand corner of the
battery compartment (looking back), it just needs one wood screw to locate
it. The down side is that you need to drill a large hole in the detachable
front plastic cover and a small slit in the carpet to allow the key to pass
through. You can operate in easily, by just reaching behind the seat. You
can also remove the red plastic key completely as a security measure. I like
it because its so easy to use, so I do USE it. Save the problem of battery
drain do to door/ bonnet light coming on at shows as a bonus....Just my
thoughts.

themselves.
