What's an easy and clean way to run the wires? I was told to use a distribution block and mount it in the engine bay as well as a block for grounds.

Some blocks have fuses and some don't. Which one do I need? Here our a couple pics I was sent.

These do not have fuses.






And these do have fuses.







Not sure how many amps 3 gauges, tach and 2 step will draw.

 

I would run one thats fused just for the extra safety and if one of your accessories hooked up to that block would short out it wont affect the others. Ive got multiple accessories mounted in my interior and never thought to use a fused distribution block but after seeing this it appears i will be rewiring it all.

 

I decided last night I'm going to use the first to blocks (red and black) one for power and one for the ground. The power wire to the block will have a fuse. I think this will look cleaner running all my power wires to one location.

No if I can figure out how to label each wire I'll be set.

 

I've got a couple of fused ones on my truck, it does help keep things nice and clean and organized. I'm not a real fan of the first two you posted. That's a LOT of exposed metal with power going to it. Anything grounded touches it..... zap.

 

I found another one like the 1st pic and that comes with a cover. I'm probably going to pick that one.
