Basically where the N162 shunt is for T6.1 ocean ...

I have a T6.1 Beach with only one leisure battery under the left seat, and the upper display monitor shunt is attached to the negative terminal of that battery. I had a Victron SmartShunt installed right before the factory shunt under the passenger seat next to the battery. They were also able to fit the 100/20 SmartSolar controller under there too. It’s tight, but it all fit.

Thanks, yes I noticed that yesterday, the new vw shunt is so compact and they are like "built-in" into each battery and they do a SUM inside the control unit.

I'm using 75/15 victron MPPT to handle 300w solar it's even more compact. Also I replaced both 75AH leisure batt with 2x 314ah 12v EVE batt, they fit perfectly in both original location. now 8x usable capacity than original VW leisure batt
