It looks like you have quite a bit going on with the back of your center console. Where did you get the 12 panel and what is that in the space below it?

The 12V panel is on amazon. The space below used to be where the CD changer was. Removed it and now houses my aux fused power block. I have 6AWG wire run (+ve and -ve) from the battery to the block and from it are 14AWG runs to various aux accessories. Excuse the mess below. Tidied up the wiring mess but this is what lives in there (and some relays)

Oddly enough, I've never seen a picture of the back of the center console for the Lexus, so I didn't know that was the CD changer. I ended up adding my extra fuse panel in the engine compartment, but I do like your solution. Kudos!
 
wow, that is a minty fresh interior 😎

Thanks

I actually have 2 blocks. The inside one services internal aux accessories and the outside block services all the external accessories. couldn't fit a 12 gang block with all relays in the console space.
 
Not quite this weekend, maybe a few weekends. It’s the little things that count.....

Trans temp gauge, a little fire suppression and aux power for the poor buggers in the 2nd row !
 
Replaced the headunit in the truck yesterday. I had a Pioneer Double Din that I installed when I got the truck 4 years ago. It started having issues this past summer where it would sporadically shut off and power back on. It got to the point where it was pretty unusable. So I picked up a new Pioneer (Had them in the past and really liked them so wasn't worried about getting another bad one).
New one is the AVH-2500NEX that just came out this week. This one has Apple Carplay. Added a rear view camera as well.

I know you just installed, but how are you liking it so far? Need a replacement for my DD.
 
And this, this was the whole weekend, maybe a 3 day weekend ? I didn’t like the harness from Rigid so ended up building my own, took a bunch of time. Used the snork as my ‘conduit’ from roof to engine compartment.

Three spots and two floods now controlled by my Switch-Pro’s. Can’t wait to get into the country and ‘light ‘em up’ !!
