I'm doing a wire tuck on my car and I'm at the point where I only have the fuse block left to do. I'm hoping that someone has some pictures of how they tucked there fuse block:1zhelp:. Or any pics of a this. Thanks guys.
fuse block wire tuck

I did it to my black car, I'll snap a few pics before I strip and junk it. Makes for a clean engine bay for sure. 
Here's the only pic I have of it from a while back, and the diagnostic block has been relocated since then. The pictured location was just messing around.

The only thing I rewired as far as I remember was the wire going to the alternator. (It's a good idea to do that regardless.)
The fuse box now resides below the driver's side headlight, in a relatively easy-to-reach location. I'll be doing this to my new chassis as well. It really cleans up the engine bay for sure. There is nothing mounted on the driver's or passenger's side fenderwells.
To move it, you have to de-pin the fuse box and stuff the wires through and existing body plug, then simply put the fuse box back together. I'll eventually post more pics when I get around to it... I'm kinda lazy, and super busy this weekend/next week, if that makes sense.

Thats where I was planning on putting mine. Not really too many other options without extending wires. Have you had any problems with water the way you mounted it.
Haven't driven the car in over two and a half years. It's a jackstand queen. But no, with the plans I had in mind I wouldn't have any issues with water. It would be totally sealed, and I don't drive that car in the rain unless I'm already out driving around and it starts raining.
How would you seal it from water? Is it in that big open area under the car/headlight? Would it be in the way of FFIM IC piping?
I have mine moved under the headlight and above the IC pipe. Nice and clean that way you do not see any wire in the engine bay. I have not had any problems with water but I did wrap it in a thick plastic bag just in case.

Got any pics? I've got my Cadillac horns mounted there now, just wondering how it might fit
So you need to jack the car up each time to check fuses?

Never really had a problem with blowing fuses and all the Vital stuff is in the back of the car now.
I'll try and get some pics of it soon.
