Help! Need and additional FUSE Block.

[Ashtiani]

Hey guys, Anybody install an additional (accessory) Fuseblock under the hood? Any advice on brands? I have too many aftermarket electrical accessories connected to the POS+ side of the battery and too many fuse taps! I would like to clean things up under the hood. I would prefer to install a weather resistant one under the hood if possible. Thanks for your input.

i would suggest a basic fuse block. BoatFix.com :: OnLine Store

all you have to do is run a 12v+ to the block.

as far as your negative side of the battery, with DC 12V you only have to have a common ground(normally the frame of the vehicle is a great place to ground wires, so attaching the ground to the battery is a bit excessive. so just attach your ground wire to a piece of metal connected to the frame

This is what i just got done installing on my truck for my gauges. Plus there is still plenty of room for other items that i might install later. I did buy the 12 position with ground, made a bracket and installed in the engine comp. right behind the drivers side battery. Looks professional and room to grow. I different prices online but went to the local marine supply and they had it for about the same price. The one below is at West Marine: Home Page
