Location for New Fuse Panel - remove styrofoam under steering wheel?
#11
Btw, I believe small accessory wires should be fine in the engine bay. There are already lots of small wires in wiring harnesses going right over the engine and to parts connected to it, i.e. the injectors, etc., and I've never heard of them melting. You could double-check the insulation temp rating, but as long as you're not super-close to the engine, you likely have nothing to worry about.

It's a good question, the big yellow warning sign and "SRS" stamped on it is whats giving me serious pause to touch it... can't find any info on whether its safe to remove.

My grey bit has been rattling around for ages. My guess is that it's sound insulation. But I don't know for sure.
Mine is loose because I've routed a few wires behind it. I'm waiting for it to become so annoying I remove it completely. But for now it's easy enough just to keep putting it back in.
I personally wouldn't have an issue putting something in its place. That is until someone comes along and says its vital for safety, or summink.

New fuse panel will fit nicely. I plan to cut out the styrofoam to use the existing metal mount, and shaping a piece of lexan to fit over the metal. Panel on the left. Relays, terminal block for factory dimmer splice, terminal block for switched power source. That way I only need to tap the factory electrical twice and never again
