Would you pay ~$130 for a plug-in fuse box upgrade with modern fuses?

I'd love to get one. I have been wanting to make the conversion but didn't know where to look for the peices. I am glad that you did. I really hate those ceramic junky fuses that are there now.

I would buy one. I am a electronics engineer by trade. Most wiring problems are easy for me to figure out. The time it would take to source the right parts and put it together would not b worth saving a few dollars.
Let us know when they are ready

If you make them - I also want one. It looks great! having it all ready to go (and a few extra fuse locations for expansion) is well worth the $130-ish to me!

The fuse panel kicks ass- even though I just ordered a cover from him yesterday, it WOULD be on my want list.
And if I looked at the picture right it seems like hitting the panel with your foot it nearly irrelevant since only PELE' is gonna kick those fuses out.
You have a serious ruckus in there one night after the dance (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif)(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smlove2.gif) and still not kick one of the fuses out of his panel- its beautiful!

Ha ha.. I went over this with Painless Wiring in 1995.

I could sell them.. but I really dont see a need in them. I have NO problems with the stock setup (even when installing nice 3.2's and 3.6's)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) you resurrected a four year old thread just to say no?

I have one and though I didn't need it I rather like the modern style fuses and the covers that don't just kick off. Worth every dollar.

I just don't understand the logic behind wasting the time to search for a thread, that has already resulted in someone making the product, only to answer no.

Just wondering why (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) That's all. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif)
