Looking for a Fuse Box / Relay Block

Hoping someone can help me out here. Let me start out by showing you an example of what I'm looking for, rather than trying to explain it.

https://www.amazon.com/OLS-12-Slot-R.../dp/B072KJNPHJ

I'm working on some projects, and want to consolidate my wiring. I've already built a switch panel, and the above is what I am looking to put into my engine bay. My switch panel has four switches. Each one would trigger a different relay. The item linked above is neat because it can house all four relays (it can hold six, but I only need four) along with the four fuses I would also want installed.

However, I have two issues with the above item. First, it's crazy cheap, which has me worried about quality. I wouldn't mind something a bit more... quality... and better resistant to moisture and whatnot. Second, and more importantly, it's basically just a plastic chassis, but there is no common rail for me to feed power in and out, meaning I'd still have to merge a bunch of wires together underneath, where all the pins come out.

So my question: Does anyone know of a product similar to this one, that could house four relays and fuses, but perhaps a bit higher quality that includes common points for power and ground to keep the wiring simpler and neater?

The alternative is for me to do one of these...

...in conjunction with one of these...

...but that's messier than what I want.

Thanks in advance!
