so im going to have an SQ install. wich inclueds the strict wire stuff - like clean, strong, and shielded connections, ect ect.

last night, i messed around with that little fuseblock i bought from http://www.allelectronics.com (where i got mad split loom and heatshrink for CHEAP as well) and i grinded the PCB so the copper trace was split in half, so i got 5 channels for my fused remote wire distrobution block, and 7 channels for my fused accessory power distrobution block. uses 12 individual ATC blade fuses, and has 6 10 awg inputs and one 10+ awg quick connect for the rem side. i cant wait to use this baby.

so i got my bumper on, my fender on, and the new clear marker lights. i mounted my fuse, i did the alt and batt re-grounds (gotta remove the tire to acess the alternator +, so ill wait on that one till this week. i shielded all the engine 0awg with split loom, and periodocially put heatshrink wrap around it, beginning, middle, and ends. i crimped my 0awg terminals with a 5lb hammer, vice, and channel lock pliers. grinded the paint off the mounting locations (upper front strut mounts) and i did a few other misc things today. all-in-all lots of small things that needed to be done.

now im gonna go put the sideskirts on, and remove 2 sets of 16 foot RCA's i dont need

then ill find somthing else to do - or call it a day until friday.

and it is about 95 degrees here - hot as **** - i was leaking like a freakin sprinkler the whole tiem, and my shirt is soaked with sweat

and as you all well know - i dont post a thread like this without pics - so without further adoo - here they are

mounted SNUG - dosnt move at all. that metal strap is like a Z shape, and selftapping screws were used. i think im gonna paint the top part with some black sealant stuff

closeup of the connection, screwed in with the allen bolt, then shielded with the splitloom, and the heatshrink goes all the way onto the actual fuseblock, and the wire to hold it on way better (brownie points from the judges i hope)

comments? questions, FEEL FREE!

 
looking good just hope that fuse block can handle all that power
like i said in AIM - its just for a couple ampres for the processors\lights and the other side is strictly for the REM turnon (off the relay)

there will be a seperate fuseblock 0awg->four 4awg with appropriate fuses for the power to the amplifiers //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif
