The motor controller panel is fitted.  The 3 Minn Kota controllers are in the box.  On the original outboard housing itself there is a heat sink, so I fitted them up to the box with thermal tape and added 3 computer heat sinks to the outside.  Also I have added a 24v fan inside and a switch to force air around the controllers. 

The 3 pots are the main motor controlls and the led’s are the Minn Kota battery status indicators, I thought I might as well wire them up as they were there.

The exposed wires are the leads to the motors themselves, still to do.

It was a real tight fit to get the cover on, but ok I think once it’s on.  The cables obscure the viewport a little.  A bit of bad design there, but there’s not much I can do now, but I will cable tie them out of the way as much as possible.

I still have to fit the knobs for the control pots.
