Auxillary Fuse Panel

Auxillary Fuse Panel
Well, this is going to be a relatively short write up, but i figured it may help someone with ideas. I have gotten tired of having so many fuse holders tapped off my batteries to power all my accessories in my truck, nevermind i didnt think it was overly safe. I bought this Blue Sea "Blue Sea Systems ST Blade Fuse Block - 12 Circuits with Negative Bus & Cover" panel off amazon for about $41 and decided to mount it today.
On my 2003 6.0, i used the factory 8mm bolt for the bracket that holds the under hood relays and such, and a piece of 90* aluminum stock.
I had some 8 gauge laying around from my previous sub installation, so i used that for now. I bought a 40 amp circuit breaker from autozone just so i could get it running, but i am going to upgrade to a 6 gauge and a resetable 50a circuit breaker from amazon in the future. This panel can handle 100a, and a 30a max per circuit
I have not wired in a main ground feed yet, as i dont really have any reason to
