Trying to clean the nest

[elev8_dude]

I was wondering if anybody had any good ideas on streamlining the nest of wires at the dash. I currently have 5 gauges which all need power plus radio, fuel pump, etc. Is there any power block, power strip solution?

Thanks for the help

Not sure if it is really the right/best solution... But what I have done on my motorcycle(and possibly plan on doing on my Super) is to use these normal elctrical 'blocks' (electrical connectors) like these:


I have a main power wire comming in on the first connector, and then a 'link-wire' that goes to every second connector. A common negative that comes in on the second connector, and then to every second connector as well. This way, I have a few terminals available. If you do choose to do something similar, please remember to fuse every wire that comes from this block, and make sure that you dont overload the initial (+) and (-) wires!!!

Hope this helps.

If your up for it..the way to go is watson street works they make a clean wiring kit for vw.. it's about 350 for the whole kit but it does make your car ready for any almost any kind of wiring you have planned out there.. if you don't wanna go that route.. they might be able to give you some ideas on how to clean it up...
