    I'm using this already: I plan to run the dome light power wire directly to the battery. Do I need to run an inline fuse on the wire or no b/c one is built into this box? I already have the brake light power wire spliced into the tail lights. Black is already grounded also. Just need to know about the red/white wire. [​IMG]

    I have the same setup, with dome light power run directly from the battery. And yes, you definitely need to fuse the wire to the battery, as close to the battery as you can. The fuse in that leer box/module is only protecting the wiring downstream from it.
