You could probably make another mount for your relays on top of the factory fuse box, or make a bracket to mount them in the fender out of site. Not sure what I’ll do when I get to that point.

I've still considered trying it but I have a few issues:
1. With just the bluesea box alone, it still makes contact with the hood and it sure looks like it's bowing. I do have my insulation on my hood still and I notice that you don't, so perhaps if I cut the insulation in that spot it would close.
2. I've got two fuseblocks that I plan on running (two separate circuits) so I would have to use the entire board space for the fuseblocks (assuming I could get the hood to close) which means the breakers, relays, etc would all have to be mounted elsewhere. I didn't originally like the idea of mounting them to the firewall but I need to take a peek inside the fender like you mentioned and see if I think that would look like a clean installation
3. I'll be 100% honest, I don't know what the black box is underneath the proposed panel site (I'm assuming it has something to do w/ the AC) but I do notice that it has a green service cap on it and I am wondering if it would need to be accessed if I needed to have the A/C serviced? One of the goals of my wiring setup is to have things readily accessible and if I install the tray on the passenger side, it won't interfere w/ anything.

Perhaps under the dash ....?

I literally tore my entire dash apart, the only viable place would be to mount the computer in the glovebox and use that area where the computer normally sits behind the airbag. I considered it except that I don't want to lose the bulk of my glovebox storage.

Yeah, that looks nice and is likely where I'll be coming in with my weatherpack. How has the weatherpack held up? Also, did you put the pins in the female side? I see conflicting info on which side the pins and barrels actually go into.
