Hey guys ive just took the fuse panel off and seen these 2 cables attached,whats your thoughts ?

That looks rather sketchy - where do they go?

Not a good look and hopefully not carried out by a professional auto spark.

 

If it was my car I would remove them and if still required, wired that new requirement in safely

What's that mini-blade fuse doing between two blade fuses bottom right, position 45 I think, for radio?!  

 

Fuse 11, where the top bodge wire goes is needed for correct function of electric mirrors and electric windows. Ignition switched. Looks like that wire may be on the supply side of the fuse, so unprotected by it.

Not easy to see from that pic exactly where the other bodge wire is going, but if into the right hand side of one of those blade fuses in the right hand column that's a permanent live I think, so a dangerous fire-risk bodge, as is the whole area.

Yes its terrible dont worry lads it will be removed, not on my watch lol i love a challenge lol will trace the wires back and have a look

Maybe stevie wonder has moved on to wiring...

Maybe going to a old dash cam, black box or something?

Did you trace the wires?

Going to sort this tomoz guys, will keep you updated

Well just had an hour or 2 with my son to try and get to the bottom of several problems which i will update on the other posts I created, we traced the wires back to the stereo, for some reason the wires that feeds permanent live was cut very close to the stereo harness not sure why they went to so much trouble but I'm glad they were obviously not very electrical savvy, we will purchase a new stereo anyway, the good news is the main stereo harness is intacked. that's one problem off the list

Safest way to add new wiring to fusebox is to use an adaptor, which plugs into place of existing fuse and lets you   supply both circuits from two fuses but keeps both circuits separately fused. And more importantly lets existing circuit retain existing wiring and fuse protection. It's the car equivalent of adding a low current spur to a ring main in a house.

This add from Ebay shows what I mean. Althoughsimilar items are available from other suppliers.
