    Pardon the birds nest and the mess, that’s what I’m trying to fix. It looks worse in person. If I ask something on TTE on Facebook I get smart ass comments so I stick to my A1 Tacoma world guys for the serious stuff. What’s the best way to fix this? I know aftermarket fuse box is probably the way to go but what else is there to do, could someone show me what they have done? Thanks y’all

    You could try the plastic wire loom. They come in various colors.

    Looks like that negative battery terminal needs some attention. ;)

    Make the wires longer so you can route them behind the battery and down the fender to the firewall and use some wire loom to cover all the wires.

    That’s a good idea. Might have to do that. Thanks!!

    You could just add a simple buss bar. Do a Google search for that and choose one with the desired number of connections. Simple way to clean up battery terminal connections.

    That's a rather thin wallet. It's not good to let your truck eat your wallet like that. Wiring looks clean.

    I've seen people place various electrical aparatus on top of the fuse box cover... Is it difficult to remove to get at fuses?
