Adding an aux powered fuse panel - want to make it switched. Need opinions

[FWSpyder]

I am going to add a horn relay and a relay for the frunk switch, and I thought it would be a good time to just add a powered aux fuse panel with a couple of extra spots for down the road projects.

Is there a switched power source I can use for powering the panel, (or at least use to activate a relay that powers the panel when I start the bike)?

I was thinking about trying to mount it under the seat and use the 12v going to the existing fuse panel to power it, but that is constantly hot.

Ideas? Thanks

No, not on the 2012. Both ACC circuits are always hot, as you know. Download this, then you can open it up and zoom in. You can then find a place to tap in a relay if you'd like. Just a relay wouldn't use to much current. I assume that you are going to power the horn itself, from an always live circuit like it already is.

THANKS for the diagram!

Actually I was going to put the horn on a switched circuit instead of being live all the time. The aux panel I bought is a simple 4-fuse panel. Since I have to put the frunk on a switched circuit, I thought I'd just do a fuse panel that was switched and run the horn and frunk off of it.

Worst case - if I have to just have an always-hot panel I can deal with it. I would just prefer to have it switched.

I guess the electric frunk switch only works when the bike is on... so if my panel is hot the frunk is still okay with the bike off.
