Either way, how long did it take?

Thanks brotha! I am so happy to have this setup now and know I have tons of headroom for the future in the low side.

I actually cut a hole in the backseat area and then created an access panel for it using 1/8" thick aluminum then made it fully bolt up by adding in a series of rivnuts to accept 1/4" bolts. It made the install SUPER express and made everything so simple to deal with. Plus the install turned out looking really nice. It looks like it belongs there to be honest. It didn't take me long to do the hole. Maybe a half hour to an hour tops once I really got into the groove of doing it, the access panel and the rivnuts were a different story. 10x10 were my dimensions on the access panel by the way. I then created a hole using a hole saw on the panel on one of the corners to allow wiring to pass through and that is how I ran my wiring from the pump to the Katech controller. I then finally lined the access panel with EPDM foam all around to seal it all up and make it element and noise proof to finish it off. Pump and controller install took me maybe about 2.5 hours just because I was running things differently and trying my best to figure out how to run everything properly without butchering up the Katech harness to make it work on my own setup. I also hooked it up differently from the way Katech instructions want you to and instead of hooking up controller direct to battery I did battery to a high amperage relay to controller, fuse protected of course. Pictures below. It all turned out really nice.
