I just went to Summit Racing, they have just what you want, and in 
chrome no less.
I hung it with a CAT club bracket, rough copy of the MK2 bracket in 
aluminum.
I ran the one wire to the battery terminal on the solenoid.  The largest 
gauge wire
at the auto parts store is really not large enough for 70amps, so I 
doubled up two
strands.  I also put a 70amp fuse in line but that broke..need to fix 
that...
Don't know why you want a dummy VR?   Just remove it.  I forget what I 
did with
the wires.. I'll look when I have a chance..
