Ya only reason he hasn't installed it is he heard the spring fails inside it switches to open while your driving just all bad lol but being able to just flip a switch and change your oil is a sweet deal, good to hear you haven't had any issues I'm gonna give it a shot and install it, mike was saying you added something to make it more secure?

Blue Sea Fuse Block Install
Ive gotten alot of questions about this mod costs how i installed it so on so here it goes.
Amazon.com
Fuse Block Ato 6 Circuit With Ground $37.98
Blue Sea 5102 125A SEA Fuse $7.55
BLUE SEA 5001 FUSE BLOCK MEGA 100-300A $17.78
x2 Stinger Pro Series 4 Gauge Translucent Red Power Wire $1.49
x2 Stinger Pro Series 4 Gauge Translucent Black Power Wire $1.49
x2 Stinger 4 Gauge Crimp Style Ring Terminal ( 2 Pair ) $3.50
Ace Hardware
x6 4mm bolts ( be sure to check the bolts in both fuse blocks as they require different bolt lengths if you want it flush)
You might need to upgrade your battery terminals as well i found my negative terminal had no way of mounting to it, i grabbed a set of terminals from autozone lots of selections
Install is straight forward as you see in the pictures below
be sure to leave some slack in your wire if you install the fuse block were i did so you can still get to your stock fuses
enjoy

Got my Elocker wired up today I used the harness from Inchworm, they give you everything you need and then some, I ended up removing the resistor from the harness it got way to hot, enough to melt the wires so I would recommend not using it works without it if not better,
