For the wiring on my 240 fog lights...

Anybody have a recommendation on a waterproof in-line fuse cover and source?

I thought IPD sold these but can't find them on their website.

The usual suspects like NAPA and Advaned Auto Parts don't seem to have them either.

It's a pre-wired plastic assembly that completely encloses a fuse to seal out moisture.

    If there's a pick-and-pull junkyard nearby you'll find those weatherpak fuseholders described in the below posts (that Amazon want $11+ for), under the hood of almost every midsize GM FWD from the late 80's - early 90's. Often find them on the inner fender behind the passenger headlight. I've got a small stash of them for aux.lights, stereo, etc. I think the JY wanted $1 each, unless I was also buying something more expensive, then it was "Aw - take 'em".

    Check the "marine" side of things. I think the best ones I found were actually via Amazon.com. Like $12/each. You want 10-12 gauge wire going in and out.

    While you're at it, grab an additional one to replace the crummy 25A fuse on the fender behind the battery.

    Radio Shack has them, in a 2 pack I think, for the blade fuses.

    A friend sent me this link, I have seen the product and it is much better than the one they stock at advance auto parts.
