Airbag wiring kit

[kev2809]

im putting together a wiring kit for my bag setup and had a few questions, and also hope other people can use this as a guide when doing their own kit. im using the kit avs sells as a guide here...

i wanted to see (mainly price wise) what my own would be compared to them, also i was told by a few people to run a bigger power wire than 10 guage for the compressor.

so far (at a local audio store) i got 2 conductor 16 guage speaker wire (50 feet) for my valves and switch box and 8 guage power wire (20 feet) for the compressor (total - $29). i ordered this relay from suicide doors for $2

i still need about 20-30 feet of maybe 14 or 16 gauge to ground the compressor, pressure switch, etc.

also still need a fuse holder, and this is where my question comes in. the avs kit sells a 10 guage, 40 amp fuse holder. looking around at local places i see a bunch of similar ones, but the biggest they had is 12 guage with a 30 amp holer. can this kind of fuse holder still be used, or should i try to find one thats bigger? i glanced ebay (summit racing store) and found an 8 guage, 60 amp for about $10 with shipping.


the 8 guage would wire up easy since they are they same, but if i can save a few bucks and still be safe thats good too. any electrical expertise, please chime in
