how to put 2nd gen fuse box in gsl-se?

Hey guys, I can't find the thread where this is shown/talked about in detail. I know it has been done, and i know there has been posts about it, but with this crazy new look of the forum, i can't find it using the search terms i used to use to find it "2nd gen fuse box" and "fuse box" isn't enough... can anybody point me in the right direction? I really wanted to do this today...

*edit* i mean the fuse box in the engine to replace the fuseable links.

Search is broken at the moment... As I recall, it's either a fabbed bracket or you use the stock 1st gen bracket on the FB box... Not sure, but it's not just straight bolt up.

I used the stock S4 bracket and drilled into the strut tower. One of the bracket holes lined up with an existing hole.

Here's what it looks like.

You can change the style if you goto the very bottom of the page, there will be a pull down menu on the bottom left. Pick plasma. There ya go.
