Fuse holder

On my Unlimited, I blew out a couple of fuses when I hooked up my trailer. Didn't realize there was a dead-short in the wiring. It was early morning, stores were not open yet, and no 24-hr places nearby had mini-fuses for it

Since then, I found a collection of fuses in a handy-little box that I kept inside my glove-box. I noticed some velcro-strips that have glue right on them. Trim to size and stick the box of fuses right near my fuse-panel.

See pictures for what I did!

Opening glove-box door and looking towards the fuse-panel



Glove-box removed for easy access to the panel



Holding the velcro-strip inside the cavity trying to figure a good place to put it.



1/2 of the velcro on the fuse container and also on the fuse-puller/pusher for the mini fuses



Finally, the fuses sitting where they are accessable, but out of the way and the puller sitting pretty on the side of the fusepanel.
