Auxillary Fuse box

I have a few accessories that have been wired right from the battery. The truck was used so I have to deal with this. Where can I find a more organized fuse block, or terminal strip, that I can land all of these leads on, so it looks better.

It would be something similar to this. Painless Performance Products 70114, Painless CirKit Boss Auxiliary Fuse Blocks | Painless Performance Products

It would need to have a cover to keep the elements out of course.

The local autoparts stores usually have small fuse blocks hanging on their blister pack wall pegs. Autozone actually sells a painless fuse box, search for autozone part number 30002. It's about $12.

Something like that would do the job nicely. Now I need a relay panel so I can turn on my backup aux lights with a switch without turning on the stock ones in the taillight assy. Would look silly IMO.

Pretty cheap, but not as nice as the Blue Sea fuse block, IMO.
Though I prefer screw terminals over blade connectors, for a more solid connection. The Blue Sea also has a ground buss, which could prove handy.
