Presently I have one merit socket (wired to the rear of my Prado) that the Waeco CF50 runs off (see my dual battery install for more details: http://www.pradopoint.com/viewtopic.php ... sc&start=0) and I wanted to prepare the vehicle for any additional items I will be installing in the future. In saying this I had an idea that should create my own custom circuit breaker and fuse box setup.
Well this is what I made up earlier on today, something simple that had a circuit breaker (that I currently don't have) and a 6 way fuse box. So far I've only wired up 3 10A wires (UHF radio, Light Force driving lights, rear working light) and I intend to wire up another 3 60A wires (to run the fridge, winch and camper trailer) before I install the unit.
My intention is to bolt the setup onto the existing screw holes located on the left hand side of the engine bay. Outstanding things I need to before I install it:
* install 3 60A wire,
* seal the rear with a thick rubber mat,
* file the edges so they aren't as sharp,
* purchase rubber grommits I can put between the setup and the screw holes - I want this to be at least 0.5 cm away from the body of the vehicle.
Any opinions or constructive criticism are more than welcome.
