Looking for something kind of like an sPod

I'm going to be adding my first electrical accessories to my 2017 SR5, and I'm looking for something similar to an sPod to help consolidate the wiring. I want to take advantage of a single connection to the battery, and a clean place to connect all of the downstream harnesses.

However, I don't want the unified controller/switch. Instead, I'd prefer to run to individual switches that would go in the available switch bays on the dash. My current electrical plans are minimal, so I can't see myself running out of switch bays any time soon.

Is anyone aware of something that will work for this? My gut is telling me I'll probably just need to go with a Blue Sea fuse box (or equivalent) and do it in a more manual fashion, but I figured I'd ask around a bit first.

Thanks!

Do you need fuses, relays or fuses and relays?
If just fuses blue seas fuse box works well, if you need just relays then there are relay boxes, if you need both then a pre-wired Bussmann Distribution box should do the trick.

I started like that. Wiring AOB switches and relays into the interior.

But you keep adding things and eventually I pulled that out and put in a Switch Pros. Best mod on the vehicle. I eventually filled up all 8 switches, it gets rid of all the relays and wiring and crap, and is very configurable. I wish I had have started there.

All those fuses, switches and relays are over kill....

Just run the wires through the dash, strip the ends and twist em together when you to turn the item on. Un twist when done.
