hey guys, i need to redo my wiring for all my accesory's. i need to run power to,

tach o meter
oil pressure gauge
coolant temp gauge
UUUGGGAAA horn
back up light
doom light
electric fan
wipers (switched)
turn signals (switched)

whats the best way to go about this. i know they should have relays and fuses, but i'd like to keep it clean. was thinking of getting a junction box that feeds power to all the difference circuits and uses the bullet type fuses. but then what do i do about relays? i wouldn't think i'd need a 20 or 30amp relay for each!
 
im truly afraid to ask what happened to most of this wiring...

my suggestion would be to go to your local libary, find the automotive tech manuals section, copy the wiring diagrams you need and go from there. it should tell you what needs to be fused and what needs a relay.

after you have that info it should be easy.

your other solution would be to hit a bone yard, find a donor truck with the accessories you want, your pretty basic so you shouldnt have an issue finding one, and take the entire harness and leads to plug and play in your truck. shouldnt be more then 75 bucks for everything
