Fitting a yellow top for Traxide
When I was reading up on Traxide and the D4 I was originally quite relieved to see MrH's post confirming that a yellow top would still fit in the 2nd battery box with little trouble...however when I opened up the 2nd battery box on my motor I was confronted with this

It seems that an integrated transfer module and a glow control module have appeared in the second battery box. These can be dismounted ...but there is little room to put them in the remaining space.
Has anyone overcome this and if so I'd be grateful if they could tell me how. 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

The bit with the tubes (that's technical jargon btw) is fine ..its the two bloody boxes and loom that are causing the trouble 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

Excellent Glynne...so I take it you took the transfer module out of it's protective box and just tucked it out of the way along with the glow module ? What were your thoughts about the transfer module getting wet ? It seems as though they wanted it well protected.21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021
