Default wiring Fuse block

Working on completing a Cobra build and seem to be missing the fuse block. I have the original wiring harnesses but not the fuse block. Can I get that from a donor vehicle or did CR supply one originally with their kit?

the wiring was always suspect in the kit, If I were to do it over, I would get a Painless Harness.

I agree, all white wires were never the way to go, and had issues with the gauge of said wires too. Painless=Yes. Cheers Tom.

Watching one get built now, building mine as well.

According to the hotrod shop building one, they have used all the different harnesses on the market, and Haywire sells a very nice kits. They have a "cobra " kit, but also a bigger 14 fuse kit. Wadson's hot rod shop says they use good heavy gauge wire, heavier than painless, and I spoke to the owner, and he will make whatever changes you want as well (ie floor dimmer, dash dimmer with multi position switch, riostat, key on column or dash, changes to signals and tail lights). I saw Wadson's install and it was very clean, no ugly bulkhead under the hood in the firewall. Nice neat box tucked up under the dash. I'm planning on seat warmers (in Canada), mild stereo (I know, the side pipes will prob make you unable to hear it),
Sycraft and markantioch like this.

Thanks for you advice. I will go with a complete new wiring kit. Don’t want wiring issues when the build is complete.
