Depends on what you are looking for but all part numbers are:

Bussmann 15303-ABC

A - type (fuses only, relays and fuses, wired base, etc...)
B - With or without mounting hardware
C - Type of cover

I have a 15303-404, which is a wired base, non-bussed for fuses and relays.
If you are looking for one with a single lug input so you don't have to power each fuse/relay individually, you want either a 15303-5XX or 15303-6XX depending on how you want to power up your relays.

The terminals are Metri-pack 280. Depending on where you order, some let you order individual terminals and seals. I ordered everything from WaytekWire.com

The terminals need to "tangless":
14-12 ga wire Cable seal: Blue 15324981 Terminal: 12110845
16-14 ga wire Cable seal: Gray 15324980 Terminal: 12129409
18-16 ga wire Cable seal: Green 15324982 Terminal: 12110847
22-20 ga wire Cable seal: Purple 15324985 Terminal: 12110846

Cavity seals: 12010300

I recommend buying the 14-12 ga and the 18-16 ga terminals. That should take care of all your needs.

Depending on your budget you can pickup some cheap wire crimps that will do the job: Cheap wire crimps. I bought this, and they work fine. Could work better and you get quite a workout getting them nice and tight, but I only messed up one terminal off the 40 or 50 I did.
