Default Where do yall get your power from?

Guys, im fixin to do a good bit of wiring and rewiring on my truck for gauges and other goodies like Water pump for the intercooler, oil pump for STS kit.

Im thinking about getting a Terminal block or something and run the Main wire to either one of my batteries or to the Red Box on the driver side.

Im tryin to keep it clean as possible.

Im thinking about getting something like this...

To keep everything Fused and nice and neat order.

What do yall think?

I think that's a good idea. I need to redo a bunch of mine, my underhood is like a rat's nest. Plan ahead like you're doing and you'll be able to do everything really nice and neat so it doesn't look like this

i know that NAPA sells a power block for like $22 i was going to do it but never got around to it. that way you only have to run power source into the cab then tap off it. i know how much of a pain it can get to be to run anything thru the fire wall.

My interior is all wires....it looks clean but its just all shoved in corners and crap. That looks like a good idea. I would want 2 big main plugs...one for ignition power and one for 24/7 power key on or off.
