i am wiring some things to a relay in my car. i am going to run son leds, an amp remote, maybe a fan, etc. so i want to run like a 10ga wire from a relay to a fused power distributer with like 4 outputs (like 12ga or 16ga), all with their own fuse. but i can only find ones that take a 1/0ga and output some 4 or 8. that would be too big for my purposes. are smaller ones made?

Autozone also sells a small relay block in their "wiring" section.  It works had four outputs with blade style fuse for each.  You can add 4 inputs in to it up to 10 gague I believe.  It looks a bit cheap but I have 2 in my vehicle fully loded with no problems.

can you find a link to that (or even a product number), the closest Autozone to me is like 2 hours.

That's a huge line so if it doen't work go to www.autozone.com and search for fuse holder.  It is the 4 circuit type.  I didn't pay the 6.99 they have listed my local zone had them for about $3.  it's an ok block but IMHO not worth driving 2 hours to get.  Painless wiring had some real nice blocks with relays.  Autozone sells them but you might be able to find them cheaper online and save yourself a drive, but be prepared painless stuff is expensive.

Also check out marine supply stores.  They have awesome fuse blocks.  I love the ST series of blocks for blade style fuses.
