Yeah I use the blue painters tape. Contrary to rumor, I have never had it melt and leave a gooey mess on my headlight when I don't pull the fuse.

Tape? I don't need no stinkin' tape.

Track plastics.



I use whatever masking tape I can pilfer from my friend's toolbox when he's not looking, and then duct tape on top of that.
