Default Underhood Fuse box

Can I run a 'power' block off the fuse box (under the hood with the 14mm bolt) to connect additional things needing power? I currently have these connected; door actuators, popper control, PIAA foglights and HIDs and its getting crowded.

I put a power block under my dash for my gauges and other accessories, one cable to the block, nice and neat.

I'll have to look into this more. There isn't much room in the battery den, but I think I could mount one on the outer most part of the den close to the hood catch.

I have the fuse for my amps mounted there. I don't see why you can't add a power block.

BTW: Check RV and boat sites. They usually have some good stuff for this.
