Best size/weight for auxillary wiring - and where to buy ?
Am looking at adding one of the little six fuse units into my 90 to provide power for the sub-woofer, rear camera, work light, front spots, etc and was wondering what size/weight of wiring to use:
A) from the battery to the fuse box
B) from the fuse box to any of the remote units - eg rear work lights or to the front spots
C) to any relay units that might be needed along the way !

Any thoughts or recommendations ?

Thanks

Jon

Yet to be installed, but I have a 2 x 6 Gang aux fuse box. I'm going to run a 35A relayed line to each bank, then 16-25A (Have lots of that around) of to each device.

Both relays will be run from the *hopefully* spare ignition line on the back of the barrel!

As to suppliers,

PoleVolt and Vehicle Wiring Products are my choice (VWP are reasonably local'ish).
