I recently found a great compact fuse panel, which takes care of all my needs. It is rated at a max of 15 amps per line, 50 amps total. Here is the mounting process:

Starting out:



Cleaning the install area:

Peeling double-sided tape from Relay to mount:

Mounted, note the ground location(green wire):

Fuses mounted, the white wire is my trigger wire, it is connected currently to the tail light, but for those using my harness there is a no-cut option on there:

All finished, with cover on. I have nothing connected, but power was present at all 4 terminals just as it should be:

I hope this helps people, especially those with 6th gens and no room!!!

Neat. So is this going to be your "Level 2" purchase option? 491.gif

Who makes the fuse panel?

Where did you buy it?

It already is, $35 for the whole kit ready to bolt in(includes 4 additional flag terminals for connecting accessories. Save on shipping if you order with the harness.

Sweet...I likey. When you say "bolt in," you really mean "stick in" right?

Does your kit come with the fuses?

Hmmm, "stick on", "bolt in"...suck choices. I will go with bolt in because:

a. it sounds more professional
b. The ground wire bolts on, so technically it is correct.
