Addition Fuse Box

[AaronsX]

Ok so right now I have a cb, light bar, winch, and subs all hooked up to the positive terminal on my battery. Here in the next month of so I will be adding POV lights and sirens to my truck and I need to add another fuse box so I can move my CB and Light bar too and also run my lights and sirens up to. Is there a Perfect how to of what I need to buy and how to do it because when it comes to wiring I have the knowledge of a 2 year old. Hints me hooking it all the the battery haha.

well also had a big discussion on what fuse boxes people were using to aaron.

Blue sea blade fuse with ground right in the glove compartment. boom.

I got one of these Fuse block 1 and if you want to use relays...they're easy to add.

OR

If you don't want the neg. bus or cover Fuse block 2

Those are the ones I've seen before! This is all brand new to me but I think I found a friend last night that knows alot about wiring so hopefully hell be able to help. It will just be a pain having to re-wire everything.

Ricel how did you get that fuse block into the glove compartment, I wired my fogs yesterday from my bumper and I couldn't fo the life of me figure out how to get wires through the passenger side firewall grommet. what gives!?

Negative bus is strongly recommended....

I either used a pick or an awl with a pull string attached on the engine side, and the pulled the wire from the passenger compartment into the engine bay.

Yep. That's how you do it. I used a coat hanger after making a hole in the grommet. Then after a while, I was able to pull the wire through. Just go easy or other things might get caught.

The grommet on the drivers side has a lot more open space than the passenger side. Plus, on the drivers side there is no air box or glove compartment so you can see the backside of the grommet a lot easier. FYI.

Aaron check these out they are prewired and noob friendly on page three he has google drive docs for wiring primer (basic wiring tips, how to crimp etc) and installation suggestions for the box.

I've used ones similar to this http://blackrhinoperformance.com/Products/Weather-Resistant-Fuse-Block-w-Relay__ELE200022.aspx before only a little larger, I currently have a 12 circuit box I'm getting ready to wire into my X. Painless also has some 7 circuit weather proof boxes http://www.painlessperformance.com/...totalRows_FindKeywordrst=21&s=fuse+box&sb=Go!
