    Look up (@paranoid56) paranoid fabrications, they are in the $25 price range. That’s close to what you would spend making yours unless you have scrap laying around.

    Try a scap yard. I found a piece for about $6 that had some bends in it and was able to cut my panel plus several other parts from it.

    Installed an aux fuse box. Busman breaker and Blue Seas fuse box. Used 12 gauge wire. Only issue was getting the bracket to “seat” correctly. And, I cross-threaded a bolt when installing the bracket. I’ll clean up the wires and fix themount tomorrow.

    Just wanted to ask, how many of you ran the negative from the panel back to the battery. I know some used the chassis . I am thinking of doing both.
    I purchased the Bluesea 5032 which has a split bus.6 circuits hot all the time, the other 6 are switched (accessory). I needed this for a dashcam hookup. The hardwire kit calls for a hot and a accessory.
    So I am curious about the negative cable if some can chime in here.

    I ran it back and shared the same ground as the battery - to the chassis.

    For one don’t do both. I used the chassis ground, no issues. But I run a Bussman and all my accessories ground out on the body elsewhere, so only small current running to ground is my relays.
