I want to order a distribution block to clean up my wiring and need advice/suggestions.

I am using this to power gauges, a CB radio, radar detector, laser jammers etc but NO stereo equipment like amplifiers that draw a lot of power. I would like to wire the block so that all of these things are on switched power. I find plenty of dist blocks that have fuses when I search, but none with wiring allowing them to be switched on with the ignition.

Currently, I have everything wired into the fuse box with those "add-a-fuse" circuits and it works fine, but makes for long/messy wiring under the dash. I figured a block would clean this up and would also make it very easy to diagnose any problems if they were ever to arise.

I have the general idea down but am unsure about the specifics in terms of what I need for hardware. I have an old block I used in another car to power amps, but the amps had their own inputs for switched power so it wasn't an issue.

oth

the underdash fuse box has three accessory connectors, one of which is
switched to the ignition:

(from the FAQ)
if you ran a wire from that connector to a fused distribution block, you should be
all set.
