The main power feed from the solenoid to the cabin of the car is a 4mm wire.
That wire feeds EVERYTHING electrical on the car.
Using US terms for reference:
6 ga is 4.11mm - so you have little less than 6 ga. wire feeding all your electrical services on your car.
6 ga wire is good for.~66-85 amps. (Remember: You ALMOST have A 6 ga wire feed) Others have done it successfully. The question is: "Are you feeling lucky"
Add the fuse or circuit breaker too. (80 amp)
