[QUOTE="Deiimos, post: 8845677, member: 682903"] Yeah, main reason for this is a poor connection. Wires may not have been tight enough, bad crimp if ring terminals used, etc, but bad connection causes this overheating / melting. Bolt style ANL fuse holders / fuses are best, with some properly crimped ring terminals, and everything bolted together rather tightly. One of my cars is using fuse holders like the one Audiobaun linked to and have never had an issue, been in there almost 10 years (they weren't GP brand, but look identical). [/QUOTE]
