Wire block for the ignition hot wire.

Hello,
Just curious if you guys have found a decent wire block for adding all those accessory we like to add to our trucks. I'm sure most of you have added more accessories than I have but if I keep going down the path I would like to it might start getting ugly.

I wired my boat with a generic fuse block.



These are cool switches with built-in breakers, but labels might be difficult.



Maybe something like this exists for vehicles. The problem is amperage - many add-ons need relays and it would be nice to have a fuse block with room for relays.

Tugly, that looks like a nice fuse block. Where did you find it? You bring up a good point at the bottom of you picture. Is most people using relays for there gauges installs and etc. I've always heard and know one should use relays for extra lights and heavy components but I guess I never really put more thought into it than that.

Here is BY FAR the best add on fuse box I can find. It is a bit pricey, but its well worth it. The guy builds these universal ones, and ones with specific purposes for the FJ/Land Cruiser crowd. He also offers 3 configurations based on what your needs are.

This is his forum post all about them.
Auxiliary fuse/relay panel

Here is the link to the page to buy them. The universal fuse block is at the bottom of the page.

Here's some deluxe stuff [LINK]

Here's my first product [LINK]

That was a great find A/Ox4 - it allowed me to find the manufacturer's site.
