How To: Easily Add a Fused Circuit
One of the questions I get asked a lot when dealing with dash electronics is "Where do I supply power from?". This comes up a lot especially when wiring up a new stereo or wiring up some gauges. I figured I'd take a minute and explain the easiest way to accomplish this. Even if you're not comfortable with 12v wiring in general. This will be very easy. I promise.

Steering Column Volt Meter
I wanted a way to easily check my battery voltage while in the driver's seat and I began looking for different options online. I considered added a 52mm Voltage Gauge to my custom gauge cluster on my center dash but I already have 4 Gauges there. I didn't want to add a 5th. I remember seeing these steering column covers which are factory made and were meant to house a switch for a factory seat heater control. I've seen other owners place voltage meters or a outside temperature display in these slots before so I thought this would be my best option. Now I just got to find one!

Rear Power Distribution Block
I've been wanting to make a post on my auxiliary battery system for awhile now but it keeps evolving errr GROWING! lol. I decided to share a bit of my system piece by piece instead of trying to cover everything at once. This will be WAY easier. I hope. Ha.
