[QUOTE="brian84corvette, post: 8218017, member: 586635"] nope - the style scosche fuze block i had was made from plastic - and used a screw from the underside to mount each side of the metal bar wich holds each side of the fuse. the screws were exposed on the underside of the plastic fuse block - so it was basicly a dead short to ground - and let me tell you - by the time i got off the highway and pulled over - that plastic fuze holder was a complete melted mess all over my fender and that 2 guage wire was about red hot - as that little screw under there was some how able to either back out or in some way come in to contact with ground ( the metal of my inner fender ) imediately melted down the plastic holder - and alloed full terminal bar contact with ground = major fire hazard i will never mount my fuse blocks to anything but a piece of wood - or a thick piece of hard plastic ( like a chunk of a cutting board ) [/QUOTE]
