Need some help setting up new stuff

I just got a new FJ and need some help wiring up some electrical stuff.
Ive got the following things to power

Viair 380c compressor
Cobra 75 WXST radio
Alpine class D amp (cant remember the model but its 400w @4ohm)
LED emergency lights front and rear

I want the compressor and CB to only run when the key is on. What can I hook to for that signal? The compressor is also for a set of air horns so how do I hook that into the stock horn switch? I thought about the Blue Marine power block but I dont know how much it can run. The lights are about 12 amps max. I plan on taking the amp power on from the stock sub switch.

Basically I dont know what needs to go straight off the battery and what could go off a power block. I wanna keep this neat and not look like a rats nest of wires going all over. All Ive ever done before now is simple single amp installs.
