Assistance Request: MESO Customs 3G Extended Fuse Cover over Taps

Having an issue with the MESO Customs 3G Extended Fuse Cover. Mine came in today and it looked simple enough to install but my fuse taps don't line up with the slots on the side. Am I doing it wrong?

I assumed that the rail down the center of the fuse panel is the power supply side of the fuses and the outer rails are where the wires come off to go to the accessories protected by the fuses. Or am I backwards and need to rotate my taps so the wires feed across the center?

 

I had the same issue. I got bored after trying for 4 minutes and gave up lol

 

The slots are just suggestions, just make your own slots

 

I vaguely remember doing some custom trimming to fit mine.

 

Mine also- works very well. But you can also insert the taps in either direction on the fuse block, they don’t all have to be facing the same direction.

 

Ahhh not so fast on that one. If you put them in backwards, then the tap bypasses the fuse.

Good point!

Luckily, I always put inline fuses on both ends af the leads for my accessories, especially for anything going through the firewall or behind other panels.
