but at a lower price? $300 from Summit seems awful high to me! Someone has to have seen the market for something like this.

Maybe Dakota Digital?

Not that I have seen. You would think with the number of relays that we run (I have 5 IIRC) that a product like this would be commonplace; everything in one location, easily wired, and most of all, much more professional looking than a bank of relays screwed together with another bank of fuses nearby.

If you can do the wiring yourself, Delphi sells a module with 4 relays and 6 fuses that is about the size of a credit card. You could probably assemble it for under $50. If you need more circuits, they have boxes that will hold three and four modules.

Any idea where I can find that Delphi part? They make about a billion things.

That spaghetti menders piece may be similar, but at $269, I'd rather get the Dedenbear piece.

That is a sweet board. I just emailed Dave about getting one made for my 67 ' Bird. That will solve a lot of wireing issues down the road.

That's a good, cheap solution... onto the parts list it goes.

Here is the linke to the catalog. Look in the electrical center section. www.mouser.com (http://www.mouser.com) sells most of the components. Using this catalog, I built the entire electrical system for my car. Fuse panel and all.

I must admit, the circuit board looks pretty nice. Mouser will have a NEMA 4X box to mount it in so you can put anywhere you want. It is the box with the clear lid

As shown in TnBlkC230WZ car I just picked up yesterday a engine fuse box from a late model TA it came with two fuse packs both have like 6 relays in them. It will be much easier to hook all the new updates like headlights, alarm, well you get the idea. Cost me $25.00

Was it easy to find a schematic for your fuse block??

Sorry never looked for one, when I took if from the car I asked the guys to leave about 6" of wire attached, then as I need a circuit I just replace the wire under the fuse box. I will try post a photo later today.

I built my own schematic. All the parts are readily available. www.mouser.com (http://www.mouser.com) sells them individually. If you PM me your email address, I'll send you the Visio. You can get the Visio viewer from Microsofts web site. There will be many similarities, but you will want to taylor to your accessories. All parts in my pic are USA or Canadian made.

Here is the one I'm using. Nice and small :) You see they have 5 relays and a good amount of fuses.

What car is that from? It looks pretty ideal.

This is from a 4th gen Firebird or Trans am.. The nice thing is this car comes with two of the same thing. So you could run one on each side.

Thanks for the tips on this. I picked up a fues/relay box and the mounting bracket from a 1993 Camaro yesterday at a local yard. $15 bucks. Now all i need to do is find a wiring schematic for it.
