Re: CLEAN 12v Fuse Block Accessory Install w/Pics

At what point do you think you're going to need an additional battery? Was thinking of running a new fuse box for any extras, but was going to wait until I got an extra power source.

This box is for running my CB, Scanner, Radar Det, Under dash Black out lights, driving lights, Flood Lights, etc. I will move to a dual Battery setup when I buy my RA Bumper & Warn Winch. I will want a second with an installed winch. This is why I ran 10 Gauge wire for the Main, to handle my extras.

Re: CLEAN 12v Fuse Block Accessory Install w/Pics

I want to do something like this bad but I am so lost when it comes to electrical stuff.

Great Write up! I have my CB still in the box that I need to get around to wiring and a Sirius radio receiver I would like to hardwire. You wont happen to be in eastern NC anytime soon?

I just finished making a "No Drill Large CB Mount". I have a large CB, not many places to mount it inside the vehicle. I don't want to drill in the Glove box like some others have. I found underneath the center console are (2) bolts that I tied into. The CB Bracket comes out underneath the console, very clean looking, it sits along the passenger side of the console. I'll be posting the write up in a day or two. And no, I won't be in the NC area sorry , It's very nice where you are.

Shadow, I have a question for you about your Fuse block. I plan on running a total of 5 pairs of AUX lights on my FJ. I already have a dual-battery setup ready to be installed, and I would like to know if you think I could (or, better yet, should) install one of these additional Fuse blocks, as well.

If your running (5) dif sets, then I would IMHO. This way you keep all your lights on the same circuit breaker. Allot easer then trying to trace or track down wires all over under the dash if you have them spread out. The added feature is you can write on the cover what Acc the wire goes too. I hope this helps
