so for the one on the chassis leg, does the battery tray have to come out?

is this the one referred to as EP3 in diagrams?

been under the bonnet again, cleaned up the ones i could get to.

now this is where it gets weird.

can anyone tell me where the 2 cables are meant to go to, the ones from the battery.

theres currently the main one going to the gearbox and another, but im not sure where its meant to go. ive currently bolted that to the gearbox too, but previously it was bolted to the slam panel at the front.

Gearbox one goes to the chassis leg
Battery one goes to the gearbox

It doesn't hurt to upgrade them or even add more, ie engine to chassis
