Space behind the b-pillar

[snoop6060]

I should know this as I’ve had it off multiple times but it’s been a while. I’m trying to tidy up the under seat electrics since fitting a much larger battery. It’s now super cramped and messy so I wanna move the fuse box. I have 8 circuits (should have just used less!). 4 each side.

I was thinking of panel mounting a small cbe fuse box on the b pillar that all the cables come down and running a single 10 awg cable from there to a small midi fuse distributer next to my battery. Much tidier tho more connections. But will it fit? Looks low profile but I need angled spade connectors I assume.

One of these: CBE 4 Fuse Module - Grey

Right figured I’d answer my own question in case anyone ever searches this… took it off and yeah there is plenty of depth to mount this or other similar stuff.

Out of interest the B Pillar which side?

 

[snoop6060]

Drivers side. It’ll fit on the passenger side too but the issue is clearance for the bench seat. It’s on a swivel so can’t see it working, so need to think about that side.

I was thinking, thats a good idea to save space, then thought what a pain in the derrier it would be if a fuse blew (I know they shouldn't).

Why? They are panel mounted and easy to change.

I mean taking the b pillar plastics off to get to the fuse box.

I think @snoop6060 is intending to use the b pillar plastic as the panel so the fuses are accessible.

Yeah indeed I’m gonna cut a hole in the b pillar above the alarm switch and panel mount the fuse box. Easy to change em.
