    Get you 2 of these one for positive and one for ground, rig a jumper from the power to the one beside it then you ha 2 hot and ground screws on the other side. I would rerun from battery with 10 gauge twisted pair 16 would be to light on that run for 2 finders in my opinion.

    Blue Sea Systems, Terminal Block 20 Amp

    Or you could go this route
    Sea-Dog, Combination Buss Bars

    Also I would run 10 amp fuse at battery and you recommended fuse at finder wire end hooked to terminal block.
