Grounding blocks?

Post by eboe »

Does anybody use any type of distribution block for grounding accessories in center consoles? I have some aftermarket fuse panels that power everything nicely, but I'm trying to tidy up the ground wires. Is there any type of barrier strip that has a big lug on the end for a 4-ga wire or something like that? I'd just like to run all the grounds to a block inside the console and have a single 4-ga cable coming out to ground.

Any suggestions on where I can get something like that?
