New Location for Aux Fuse Box

[DaToy]

I have been trying to figure out a good spot for the passenger compartment aux fuse box. I had it behind the passenger kick panel but I did not like that. Here is a post with picture on my new location: My Toyota FJ Cruiser Blog Archive FJ Cruiser Accessory Fuse Bax - Passenger Compartment

Interesting location; not where I put mine but at least it will be quick and easy to access the fuses. Bonus points for originality.

I originally had the panel behind the passenger kick panel.. Hard to get to. I have updated the post with the harness built. My Toyota FJ Cruiser Blog Archive Aux Electrical System Fuse Box Wiring Harness

For an alternate location, we bought a nice fuse box set up at West Marine and installed it on top of the under hood fuse box. We run all our Aux. equipment (winch, lights, CB) off of it and isolate them through a second battery mounted behind the air cleaner box on the passenger side.

I also run a fuse box under the hood and there is one installed in the back wher my radio gear is.

I made a small mounting plate and mounted my Aux fuse box, 4 relays and a buss bar under the dash just to the left of the steering column. The buss bar brings power and ground for roof top lights from the battery and distributes it up to the roof via the A pillar on the driver's side then through the roof via a hole drilled under the rack foot.

Mine is located near the steering column as it passes through the firewall. Fabbed up a plate to mount one of those West Marine models. Mounted a 60AMP breaker between it and the battery - right next to my fender bulge/crack

this is what I did as well only used a 80 amp breaker. i used the two existing bolt and nuts to mount the fabbed plate. used the Blue Sea 6 station fuse bloc. works great.
