Thumbs down Battery and Fuse Box Relocation

I decided to make my own plug in play harness to relocate my fuse box from underneath the hood to the trunk. Why you may ask well one reason is for heat issues with turbo appilcations of course another reason is because placing the fuse box behind the fender is crazy espically if you blow a fuse. So I wanted to place it in a nice location free of heat and with easy access. I am still working on this project waiting on parts from Majestic Honda. The reason I am posting this thread is for all the people out there who know how to open stock connectors both male and female sides but have no idea where to get new pins. After about 6 weeks of research and with NO HELP what so ever from Boomslang or Tree Frog I finally found them all of them on Majestichonda.com of course. So if you are struggling to find the same parts I was look no further then MajesticHonda.com in the parts section simply type the part number 07JAZ in the search bar and you will find the complete list of the pins both male and female. The only problem is no pictures so I had to order one of every style of pin priced any where between .16 to .48 cents. They also sell the special tools on this page for removing stock old pins and the special crimper for your new pins oh and they also carry this 300.00 repinning kit I plan on taking a picture of every style of pin and posting them on this thread to help out everyone. If you are still having problems finding the pins here is a direct link

I could not figure a way to get the pins to stay in place so I had to use silicone works great but looks ghetto to me As you can tell I have a little more work to do

The Connectors were easy to work with the come apart pretty easy with a small screwdriver. When I replaced OEM gauge wire with I think its 14 gauge it was a little difficult to get the conenctor to close properly.

I bought this distribution block to convert from 2AWG to 4AWG to connect to the smaller fuse box that is located next to the master cylinder where the starter draws its power from the battery
