I'd buy three.

The later ones simply add an additional fuse to one side, for AC I think. In 
fact, you could take this as a cue and add one or two more extra fuses -- 
nearly all of us have added something, piggybacked on ACC or BATT because 
there's no better place.

If these were ATO it woudl be even easier to lay out. The OEM terminal layout 
for the fastons and mounting holes is fairly critical, it's tight in there.
