Default headlight fuse

the ones on the passenger side, like a yellow fuse box and a black thing bolted to the metal. do they have to be bolted down for any reason? i am hiding wires and was just gonna wrap them in electrical tape and hise em. is it safe?

it needs to be bolted dude unless you take the connectors off the fuse box wiring and put a differnt style connector that can connect to a different style fuse (ie tube-type fuses with a holder around it or blade fuses and the holder for it)

go to the FAQ and they have guides for wire tucks.... they black box is your fan relays, without them no fan, the yellow is your headlight grounds meaning they have to be grounded

well, i figured they needed grounded, but i didnt know if it mattered where at. i was gonna screw them in down below the battery tray and wrap them in electrical tape because more chance of water down there. i said screw it i am far from a show car anyways. i just let them alone. i got all my other fuses sort of hidden. i didnt run anything inside of fenders, just rerouted them in a less noticeable way. i mostly wanted to hide all the connectors that are with the fuse box. i did that and then on the drivers side everything but the clutch cable. good enough for me. i am the only one who sees under the hood anyway. i just like stuff clean. thanks for ur help

you can ground to anything that is a clean metal area and is framed to the car er frame, i think you get the idea

sure do, but i put my battery in and bolted everything down, so like i said, it isnt a show car, and i am the only honda lover in my area to appreciate a clean bay so.. i said "F" it and called it a day. i was gonna wire wheel a patch of paint to bare metal and then put two sheet metal screw through to hold it. anyways, i appreciate the info guys. thanks
