Still waiting to install a Bussmman RTMR, is all wired I have just been to lazy to mount and install it. That is powered by a Bussmman Power Relay Module.

If I were to make a suggestion, I think you best approach to be to build a mount that is modular, basically a base mount adding a small template piece would attach you would attach. You could have templates or some form of universal template for a Bussmman RTMR , or various Blue See Systems, a SPoD, or other. Even if it were a basic skeleton mount I would be happy to cut my own template in lexan/plexi

This would definitely give you a larger market as opposed to fab'ing a different mount for each system or one specific system.

I'm using a SwitchPro and Bussman box with a few circuit breakers

Nice :thumb: Clean work = like

Blue Sea 12 circuit fuse block, with Blue Sea circuit breaker.

This is sitting in a bag because I haven't gotten around to mounting it.

Definitely will be universal but wanted to see what everyone was running so we can accommodate as many needs as possible.

[MENTION=139789]RagoFabrication[/MENTION] any word on this thing yet?

 

[greatape]

If not mentioned, having the ability to mount in various places in the engine bay (behind fuse panel, rear passenger side,etcc) would be nice incorporated into the design

Hey everybody, be forewarned, this may be a stupid question. I am running the Switchpros unit and am wondering if there is any need or real benefit (other than wiring organization) to run a Blue Sea fuse block. Thanks in advance!

I have the same question. Any answers?

Bump!

Anybody have an opinion on above?

Just curious as well. I just purchased a SwitchPro set and was wondering if I should continue using my Bussman fuse / relay box also.

I recently installed a switch pro and I'm still using my bluesea fuse box. I have other accessories that I plan on using that is not going to be wired to the switch pro. If all of your accessories are being hooked up to the switch pro then you can probably do with out your Bussman.

Fuse block vs. Switch Pros

You may or may not have a need for both a Switch Pros and a fuse block:

1) Fuse block will be good for any always-on accessories. You would need to be okay with the fact that you cannot switch these accessories on or off (without a switch/relay)

2) Anything that is going to be switched will go through the Switch Pros

I can see the benefit of having both if you have a large number of accessories but not all of them need to be switched. This will keep the wiring to the battery minimal (1 wire per positive and negative terminal for the Switch Pros, 1 for the Fuse block).

On my FJ, I had both and I had unused switches, so somewhat of a waste (the fuse block came first and I left it installed).

In summation - for most folks, the Switch Pros by itself will be sufficient

How about a battery holddown with tray as well?

Checked the rago fabrication website and haven't seen the mount. Is it still in work?

 

[graciedad04]

I am just starting to look for one and would definitely be interested in the rago one.

Can you post a pic of the box open so I can see what it looks like inside please? I can only hope my engine bay looks that clean when I get done installing everything haha!
