Ryan has helped me on my last 5 builds so we have a good mature game plan on the wiring.

This allows all the power to be switched in the trunk and all the circuits we need for engine, ABS, Vapor Work Fuel controller, body wiring.....

All the Mil Spec connectors are cool and allow a modular build up.





I think your on to something here. How tough would it be to put this idea/part into production?

Another red one! I'm looking forward to seeing more. I really really like the fusebox relocation. Its funny, all of that space in the trunk staring me in the face when I intended to sacrifice my glovebox.

You are on to something, Mike. I think I like this better than the Isis.

With all the stuff we now like to stuff in our cars --- there's no reason whatsoever to have the fuse box up there too!

Plenty of room in the trunk up under the package tray -- and like others pointed out - who want to lay upside-down in the dark trying to see a fuse! Try it with bifocals on!


Nice looking stuff Mark!

This is in the trunk of a '69 Camaro -- why would you lay in the trunk?? Even I can reach in there and fix a fuse. But then again --- I built it that way. :>)
