    Default accessory wiring mase easy

    I wanted to add an easy way to wire accessories, this is what I came up with. This is the block off box to give room for the switches while blocking the vent. Click image for larger version.

    OK, this is what it looks like under the hood, two terminal blocks, one feeds the relays from batt power. One feeds the switches from the relays, so one is switched power, one is unswitched power. From there it goes to the fuse block on the right at front end of fender. the uncovered terminal is the ground. Now when I want to add something, all I do is run the positive wire to the fuse block and the ground wire to the ground block, no mess no fuss.Click image for larger version.
