I am very surprised at the lack of knowledge regarding electric cutouts by UK exhaust people and car engineers. A few i've contacted about getting a pair fitted have never heard of them. Why is the UK so ignorant about these cutouts that are such common accessories in the U.S?
what make (they all seem to have issues!). Mine are blanked-off at present while I try to cure a hiccup with one of the motors (hit a branch in a flood & partially pulled it off). Prior to that I had to dismantle them to cure a rattle. Its not just me, other UK members have headaches & no make seems bulletproof

KB, they will be qtp's oval ones. And as I have straight pipes from cats to the back box, i am going to put them where the middle box was now it's not there anymore and that it already has the heat resistor plates there. There is a lot more room to play with as there is more ground clearance there than fitting them after the cats, and because I have straight pipes anyway, I don't think it matters where they go along the pipe.
