Auxiliary Fusebox
I am looking to install an auxiliary fusebox ideally under the drivers seat alongside the main fuses.I am looking to make these additional fuses permanently live.

Has anyone else done this? Is there a +ve busbar in the existing fusebox I can connect into or do I need to run a new cable to the battery?

Another option I am considering is due to the fact that I have a base model I have plenty of blank fuse holes. Does any one have part numbers for connectors that would fit? Again if I went with this option where would I best be connecting to the +ve?

Many thanks

Do a search under 'Blue Sea.' I fitted one under the seat. Thumbs Up

Probably easier to run a (fused) cable from the battery - there is hole on the positive battery terminal that will take an M8 bolt you can use. Cable (and fused) will have to be suitably thick to cope with the draw on the ancillary fusebox
