Is there anything off-the-shelf like this....
The image below is a quick sketchup of what I mean.
I'm just trying to make it easier for myself to add/remove devices from the car as I'm constantly swapping stuff out and it'd be much more beneficial if I could avoid re-soldering/crimping every single time.
Basically I'm looking for a little box with screw terminals that I can feed Live/IGN/GND in on one side and have the box split it out to two or 3 sets of the same on the other side.

Most manufacturers only make them for positives because you can split the remote turn on (as it's fused elsewhere and low current) and ground to the nearest chassis bolt.
You mean a power distribution unit? I've got a bit of kit that does just that (probably a bit overkill for you), it's got 4 AFS fused outputs from 1 input, and splits negative/ground and remote turn on.

Yeah thats pretty much what I'm after. Fused would be a bonus too. The closest I've found is a box like this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CONTINENTAL-TYPE-F...3a53a4816f
Which wouldnt be very ideal as I'd have have to modify it myself, and one one side of the box 5 terminals would be unused.

I don't mean that to sound patronising, but they are very expensive for a power distribution unit and very much overkill.It looks like this with the top off:

See if there's anything suitable here http://caraudiosecurity.com/shop/product...locks.html
That will give you an idea of what you're looking at and then you can pick them up cheap on eBay.
Mine's a soundstream powerplant... you'll be there looking for one for a very long time and then decide they are too expensive for what you're doing I don't mean that to sound patronising, but they are very expensive for a power distribution unit and very much overkill.

You're probably better off picking a few of these up cheap http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/260786521480
I suppose I could always use this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/3-WAY-AGU-FUSE-BLO...414dec7a19
And just stuff as many things as i need into a single screw terminal if its big enough? Was trying to keep it neatish tho :/
Yeh I think you're right. There's plenty of 2in-4out or 1in-3out options but nothing exactly what I need.

Both sides of fuses are fed separately so you can feed switched to one and permanent to another.
and theres earth connections at the bottom.
