My Wonderful Wife...

Captain,

If you wheel in places such as Jaime, just make sure you mount the connector outside where you can access it in the dark in a mud hole when everyone's a scrambling panic. Either that or make sure you connect the thing before you go in, even if you're SURE you're not gonna get stuck

I hope so too. I just got an XD9000, and the manual had the exact same thing verbatim in it. I didn't find out about the caveat until after I installed the little bugger. I have yet to use it in the field. The XD9000 has the electronics separate, and I'm considering getting the sealed MOSFET control pack, which is touted as all but waterproof. I would mount it high on the firewall.

Do you think that idea has any merit, or am I just falling for the hype?

My old ramsey control pack was exposed, and got wet constantly and it never failed. I just coated all connections with dielectric grease.

So while I'm sure that the waterproof control pack is better, I don't think its necessary, especially if you mount the stock control pack in the engine bay.
