Needless to say I'm not very sophisticated at posting pictures, I didn't buy the bulkhead plate but if I were to do again I would get the four square. As you can see from the pics it's very tight in that corner, the plate would help greatly with installation and reinforce the fire wall. I bought a crimper off of Ebay, it worked well. I bought V.A.'s machined aluminum controls, cut some ABS for a bezel and installed it in the stock location.

Thanks for the pics. Your install looks great. On the hoses and crimps, you did those yourself and no leaks? I ask because I've had trouble getting my stuff to not leak (brake and fuel lines). I was thinking of having a local guy who does installs do mine but I'm afraid it will come out as he wants it, not me. On the controls, are they back lit? My brother-in-law had his installed by the installer and his are not back lit...can't see them at night, but they may not be VA. Never mind. the first words in the description are" internally lighted." Thanks again.

I'm not on the road yet, so I haven't charged the system. The fittings are a good design and the dies on the crimper are easy to get it right, so I'm pretty confident.
