It is very easy to move that stuff to the aux battery. You don't even need to pull the fuse block down. Put it back, checking that you did not loosen any of the connections on the back side. All you need to do is remove fuse #3 and LEAVE IT OUT. Then put a male spade connector on the #12 wire you ran up to that area. Then plug that male spade into the BOTTOM slot where fuse #3 was pulled from. You are done. This only works on 1986 and newer. Be sure to put a fuse on the #12 wire, right near the aux battery.
