Installed a second fusebox

Featured Replies

Not very exciting but thought it might be of interest to anyone with lots of electrical extras.. I posted about this a while ago but no-one seemed to have done it. Basically I just put in a blade fusebox to replace the 4 inline fuse holders I had tangled up in my battery tray, with a single thick cable going from the battery to the 'box:

Central locking, electric windows, front foglights and airhorn so far with space for a few more goodies in the future!

The fusebox is from eBay but unfortunately each fuse has a separate input so we soldered a thick piece of solid copper wire through the holes in the middle of them all to spread the input across them all.

If anyone wants any more info then just ask! Just make sure you use an appropriately sized cable from the battery with an appropriate fuse (can't really get around using an in-line for this one :() to protect that cable (this cable/fuse should be rated at at least the sum of the fuses being used so they can all be used at the same time)
