Installed this last night...  had some trouble locating all the grounding points but I got there in the end.  Tested it out this morning and can definitely see differences - the voltage meter doesn't drop anymore no matter how many buttons I press at the same time!

Also noticed a little bit more ummpff down in the bottom gears - could be misconception.  Have a shitty tape deck right now so no idea whether radio booms more; and as for lights - no lights during day time :P

Question:

The LED on the unit is always on, even when the car is off...  this will have absolutely no chance of draining the battery yeah?  I know this is a dumb question but just to be safe.

Finally, talked to my mate this morning and he explained how it works...  the unit is just packed with capacitators which hold voltage from the battery.  Whenever there is a dip in the power curve (electrical), the unit will release charge and keep the curve pretty much flat.  This explains how everything related to the electrics keeps running high if not "higher" since there is no drop in voltage.

Sorry if I've repeated any information before.

Will post photos of my install on my site later on.

Thanks again Greg

wow.. that's a lotta wiring! I hope you don't have to remove your strut-brace any time soon ;op

Good to see your FMIC went well! (came round to buggy repair place to see it going in)

Not supposed to talk in here but hey thanks... and the strut brace won't be coming off, it's better than anything aftermarket anyway. Thanks for coming around last time too...

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
