My diy aux. fuse box

This will be my first postings so bear with me. Starting the first mods to my 2nd gen and figured I would get a second fuse box wired up for future lights and accessories. I’m not a wiring expert by any means so feel free to add any helpful tips, this is my first crack at a “legit” wiring setup.

 

I really like the Bussman RTMR boxes. has relays too.

Something like this

here is a random ebay vendor who is selling a pre-wired one.

This is what I started with for making my mount. It’s perfect thickness, aluminum, and best part FREE!



This is where I’m at so far with my mount . Will update tomorrow!

 

I like how well the bussmans look installed but seemed a bit complex for a first timer. Going to see how this one goes and always open to upgrades in the future.

 

Awesome, really liking your ingenuity and frugalness with your project. By chance do you ride a KLR?

 

Another option that's perhaps more weather proof is a Blue Sea's module.

 

After adding quite a few devices to my truck, I decided to go with Hooke Road 6-Switch Panel. One of the reasons is that I already had 2 switches in the "coin/junk" drawer and I liked the way it utilized that cubby while still being flush.

Still liking your ingenuity.
