On the drivers side by the electical box I now have quite a number of items installed, with more to come ... and hate to keep soldering a new wire onto the mass thats there ...

What I was thinking was take a feed from the main junction box under the steering wheel, must be a 14v feed there?

And get a little project box and fill it with female photo connectors, then, with my current and any new items I need power for I can just solder on a male phono connecter and it will be nice easy plug in ...

Is this a good idea?

Do I need to worry about putting them all in parallel or serial?

I will have each new item fused, maybe the main feed into the project box from the 14v feed.

Does this make sense?

Cheers

Suggest that you fuse the wire feed to the project box in order to protect that particular cable (stop it melting and causing a fire). All connections will have to be parallel inside the project box...i.e. have a "bus bar" (fused as above) and then tag off that for each separate item with a fuse on each.

Remember that the purpose of a fuse is to protect the wire and not the item!

Cheers guys ... my knowledge of electrics is limited, all I know is to be careful!!
