Default Power cable also required I think

Thanks Chris and Bruce.

I've done a lot of measuring of the space that's left in the turret and I just don't think there's enough space available for the remote control unit next to the control unit. May have to ponder that one a bit more.

Chris - the driver is indeed provided with a No1 distribution box (as per the
attached picture) and is connected via the vehicle wiring system. The DAC has a crew of three so the commander and gunner are serviced by the control box in the turret.

Looking at the wiring diagram I assume that the connections for the distribution box come from the 6 pin plug on the power supply unit. I'm guessing then that I need a special power cable for this, one that has both a 12V power supply wires (+ & -) plus speech and signal wires. Add that to the "I need" list I guess.
