Image Notes 1. make sure all the wires are in the guard or you could get a short circuit
with this completed you will have a lid half attached and a lot of cables dangling around every where. Feed these cables in to the box in an orderly fassion and ly them in the bottom. Now seperate them agian into colour groups and then place some heat shrink over the wire, pushing it pown. then fold the top of the wire so it forms a sort of oval circle and contacts the rest of the wire, slide the heat shrink over the top and then shrink it inplace. Repeat this with all the loose wires and then ziptie them together just to be safe.
