Im wanting to add a fuseblock for any aftermarket shit.. fog lights and such.
I was going to put it under the seat on the battery box cover but there isnt enough room with the ICM there.
Any other thoughts? I need it to be accessible for quick adds and fuse checks. I was thinking the tool holder but dont know how to make it so I can access it easy and still keep the wires under control.

Tool holder sounds like a mighty fine place to put it, just bore a hole into the rear of the tool holder bin and that will give you the access your looking for. As far as accessing it easy, well just as easy as taking off the side cover and opening the little door, better yet you could remove the door and, just feed the wires and block right on in without boring any hole......sounds like easy access to me.

yeah after posting I was thinking of taking out the "manual" and using that side as I Think its bigger.. installing the block on a piece of plexiglass so I can just slide it in and out easy. poking a hole or 2 in the box itself to feed wired thru.
Has anyone here done a fog light mod? I looked but didnt see anything off hand.
Thanks again

I'll post pics of my fuse block install shortly. I used the tool area also as I didn't want to take the seat off if I needed to change a fuse. In hindsight though, it's pretty rare to blow a fuse, at least for me, and I've been wiring bikes for ages.

I don't have as much room under the seat on the ACE and since I dumped that useless toolkit ages ago I decided to mount mine there.
The lower feet of the fuse panel is resting on the little ledge inside the tool compartment and there is a single self tapping screw mounted in the upper right mount of the fuse panel going through the little tab that originally held the little rubber strap that kept the toolkit in place. Even though it's just the one screw the panel itself cannot rotatebecause of where it's mounted so the single screw is enough.
You can see the relay pigtail connector at the blocks 1 o'clock. The relay is mounted to one of the airbox's screws.
