After several months of cutting, measuring, reworking, experimenting, and dealing with some well-deserved (but very inconvenient) rainfall, I’m excited to finally share the completed rear electrical overhaul on my Patrol. What was originally planned as a 2-month project stretched to nearly 5—but in hindsight, that extra time allowed me to refine the layout, resolve unforeseen challenges, and build a system without compromise.
This setup may seem excessive to some, but with a wife and three kids joining me more often, it’s become a necessity rather than a luxury.
I’ve included a ZIP file containing the full PDF with all the technical details. Unfortunately, the forum won't allow direct upload of the PDF due to size restrictions.

Re: Patrol Victron Build
Thanks for the info. Very useful. About to do something similar but most likely in 24V so your build is insightful.
