    Talk me out of buying a Jimny in Canada

    Good luck attempting to cram yourself in the back to sleep... I removed the rear seats on mine and it still only made the rear space about the same as a normal family car boot

    Possibly... It wouldn't be hard to implement a relay... Just use a normally closed relay and take the same switch feed that activates the solinoid to make the relay open thus braking the feed to the CTEK

    Yes the solinoid is is to self jump I haven't decided yet where or not to run a relay to disconnect the CTEK unit when the batteries batteries are joined mainly just for peace of of mind Would be simple to to do I guess just run the same switch wire from the solinoid to a relay on the supply...
