Installing amp. I have an ebay distribution block 4 gauge I want to snap in. Confused by the blue and grey circles on the battery which one is ok to use. Thanks! See picture below. Specifically is there a difference between snapping my wire into blue slot, grey slot. Battery so confusing and not alot of literature on it.

From the factory not all those slots may not be populated with
active blades/fuses. So be sure to check to see if you have and active
one. And they are part of a fusible link array .
Somewhere there is a picture with values
and they are suppose to be labeled underneath the
plastic cover I have been told .
(These are fuses coming right off +12 )

Nice, can you just buy the blade fuse assembly part without the plastic?

From what I've read in my research for other things not related to this issue...the power distribution block as it's called is only replaceable as a whole unit.

Are there any of these 12V connectors/"Universal socket housing" plugs that will connect to the 12V Positive of the battery and allow a 4Ga wire to directly connect to an amp? I have one now that has 2 8Ga wires, but would like two separate ones with 4Ga each if possible.

Technic used to sell a stand alone power kit as shown
in this Hi Fi harness kit

Or you can buy the raw connector.

Yes you can buy the fuse arrays from BMW or maybe some other
source.

I much like gong of the battery lug tightening screw better as it
does threaten the fuse array.(with a ring connector)

Yes that looks like the correct connector if its 4Ga but I really only need the 12v connector part and not any other parts of this setup. Any idea where to get that from?

You can look up the connectors on realoem
