Re: Exposed Wiring under drivers seat

Righto, thanks PJM/Chingford, however I am a little confused. My car has standard sound, it's not Harman Kardon, nothing indicating HK on the box.

They are all the same, dealer checked XC40's they had and a few people on here have confirmed the same. According to the XC40 wiring diagrams the box is the second fuse box.
