Dual battery in a Vigo question.
How have the 'slim' ouens routed their cable between cranking battery up front & aux battery in the back?
I was thinking of inside chassis rail down passenger side and over rear cross member to battery on driver's side at the back.
Also, what fuses are best to put in?
