As winter is coming and people wanting to fit an easy access point for charging, this is an easy place on the VXR8

Good one Mick!
I'm looking at putting something under the rear bumper, through the spare tyre well when I've got a chance to have a proper look.

Heated Garage, optimate charger run into the boot area and plugged in. When I get around to it il run a rubber grommet out of somewhere and the lead end can come outta that.

Great minds...(see above)

I too have a Heated and dehumidified (and carpeted garage) that measures a generous 20 feet x 11 feet. However, due to a poxy standard width door, getting in was a little tight:



Anyway, £400 worth of repair to the front wings later, I'd had enough smile
The garage is now storage mainly for Max's st and I have a working area. Car now lives under a Pram:








One handed operation and totally waterproof. Quite chuffed.
