Among other electrical mods, I'd like to have an in-dash USB power socket. So I'm adding a fuse to the stock dash fuse box by installing a pigtail terminal from a junkyard fuse block. I've stripped all the terminals from this one, including the buss bars (above).

Remember that the current flowing out of the fuse has to flow in, so the battery-side wire must be the same size or larger than the load wire. SEE THE NEXT PIC...
