I have an SC grille on mine so modding wouldnt be easy Sad pluss you need a good support behind it for pushing into the connector and pulling it off again... Idealy it needs some metalwork support..

Will have to ponder when i come back on sunday night about this and have a poke around. Behind the badge would be ace if a support could be made and a flap for the badge as then it could be hidden and the temp sensor could be relocated easy enough. FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

you would nearly fit the AYGO in the back of the rangie,dont bring too much luggage with you so...... Laughing

its just heavy rain and due to turn frosty again for your trip at the weekend Very Happy

having had a wee drop in the tea and dashed out in the Censored rain that lip on the front bumper under the plate recess looks the best bet.Plenty of metal work to weld a bracket onto for the connectors but is subtle enough not to spoil the lines and be seen,and not an issue for accidently bumping into it,now a volunteer is needed to design a bracket and your up and running Thumbs Up

The AA and RAC have jump posts conveniently placed because they're likely to use them several times a day. It's what they do.. Mr. Green

There are some brackets on the bay - I have the stand type one on my boat - http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_trksid=p...;_from=R40

I used 175A connectors, the AA and RAC use 350A

Here's what I did -





The Mini has a battery in the boot & a terminal under the bonnet, so I connected to that -



Dual batteries in the Jeep, but I only put a connector on the primary -



I just didn't fancy external connectors - use the same amount of cable anyway, just have longer extension leads.

I also put a connector on my old FFRR battery - it's still good enough for most things. just not starting a TDV8 on a cold day - that's in France with my boat - I keep it in the shed on a solar charger and it's great as a spare booster.
