    Thanks Kaz.

    She's all tucked up until after lock-down. You can even see my new battery charger on the floor of my cluttered garage.

    Looks good Graham 👍

    Are you plugging that in via the cigar lighter or direct to the battery terminals???

    Direct to the battery terminals. I've run the connections up under the black plastic cover to the corner of the windscreen on the driver's side. The connector just tucks in nicely under the lip of the ring hand wing.
    Need to be careful I don't chop the leads when I shut the hood, so I fitted an in-line fuse for safety.

    Another place to connect the trickle charger is the jump start connections in the engine bay. See page 232 in the Owner’s Manual under jump starting. The positive clip goes onto the jump start terminal in the fuse box - it’s under a flip up cover. The negative clip goes onto a boss on the intake manifold which has a minus sign on top. It’s possibly a bit more accessible than putting the clips onto the battery. I put the fuse box cover on the driver’s seat to remind myself to disconnect the charger before I drive the car!

    Finally, with help from Kaz, I've managed to upload a photo or two. (Yippee!!! after all these years!)
    This is how I connect my trickle charger. I put an in-line fuse in in case anything accidentally chopped a wire.
    Thank you Kaz.

    Ok, well I can see the photos but maybe others can't. Kaz has given me another hint so watch this space.

    Yes.
    Bit off topic from the car cover but great to seeing 096 type battery sitting in the OEM battery shield.
    Was not sure about the lower height as it may not be held securely at the back.
    Looks good and huge!!
    Next time, I may try the EFB or AGM spec if lower height won't be a problem.
    Thank you for posting.

    In cars, I prefer plastic 'covering' over the wires (red) to add an OEM look and more safety.

    A nice area to place the CTEC plug is behind or next to the front number plate. Routing the wires around the radiator is quite easy.
