    Adding Belly Heat redux

    I have a 36" AP rack closed on 3 sides, and already includes FW back heat.

    How can I add UTH F-watt, without a) removing the back panel, and b) positioning the terminals so they do not interfere with the removal of the tubs; as would be the case if I added the UTH heat to the front.

    Any tricks/tips/pics/vids would be helpful.

    p.s. I was thinking of "slicing" a slit in the side wall, and sliding the FW thru the slice, and simply have the terminals dang outside the rack.

    does your back remove easily? That may be the easiest way.

    Back removes, but cannot be put back on once the terminals are mounted. The plastic terminals must hang off the shelf to allow tubs to be slid all the way in. This does not allow the back piece to be put back on.

    is there enough room if you solder the connections?

    Hadn't thought of that, but may be a little above my pay grade
