Hi guys,
I've been looking at the gu power panels and to be honest they're pretty pricey for what they are and they can't really be customized to fit what you want.
I am thinking of manufacturing blank gu power panels.
Was just looking to see how many people might be interested if I was to go ahead, would work out a lot cheaper and you can put whatever you want on it.
Cheers
I have added a pre wired fuse box extra points and on the back door couple of switches

2011 ST Patrol, ARB bull bar with Tigerz11 winch and IPF spotlights. Snorkel, UHF Radio. ARB air compressor and a front locker. Dual battery, Diff Breathers and 2" OME lift and 16" Black Dynamic Steel rims with muddies
Top install Flemj. Great place for the power, especially when stopped in the campsite. Easy plug in.
For Cbates have a look at Jaycar www.jaycar.com.au or other similar electronics project stores. These guys sell all sorts of jiffy type boxes in all sorts of different sizes. Depending on your needs and where you wanted to place your power panels etc. you could use the entire box or throw the box away and just use the lid. I've done both a couple of times. The lid gives you a good strong plastic surface to mount everything on and then you just install the box or the lid into the car where you want it. The biggest issue generally is clearance between the wiring and the body when you mount it into a panel to ensure nothing shorts out.
I also made a box up with a heap of cig points and other power connectors for when camping. Had a heavy duty lead on the back going straight to the battery and the box was in the tent or the vestible of the tent and all sorts of things like lights, inverters, chargers etc. plugged straight into the box, remotely situated from the car.
