I could not find a good path from the instrument panel to the cabin so I added a new bus under the steps inside the cabin. Now I can add about anything I want without compromising the bulkhead between the helm and the cabin. Besides, it was a pain to unscrew the instrument panel with the 13 screws...
I used 8 awg marine grade power from the MBSS. I need to upgrade the negative also to 8 awg marine grade but ran short so will finish that up sometime this weekend. The 12v pwer pt is fused for 10 amp and I upgraded the wire from 14 to 12 g due to the 12 ft run I had to the new bus. I only intend to run my laptop off the new 12v. (targus sells 12v adaptors for laptops).
