Spent about 6 hours rewiring the whole car, relocating the fusebox, inline fuses and bullet connectors from the engine bay to inside the car and going to a 12 way blade type fusebox. Another half hour on it in the morning and should be done :)

PITA but should make it alot neater and more reliable electrical wise.
