Blue Sea Fuse Block, Where to mount?

Hey all,
Im going to get a Blue Sea fuse block but dont really want to mount it in the engine bay. They just dont seem to be very "waterproof" so Im trying to figure out a place to mount it inside, under the dash somewhere.
Any seen it mounted anyoplace other than the engine bay?

Under the radio? I believe there is a void in there.

Mine is on the back side of my drawers, underneath my bed platform.

But without having that setup, I think it would be cool mounted in the glove box. Even in the secret cubby above it. Might be a little work but it would be nice and tucked away with easy access.

I mounted mine on top of the fuse box in the engine compartment. I just left enough slack in the cables to get the cover and fuse block off and out of the way.
It has been fine for a couple of years now

Did this too.

It really doesn't get that wet under the hood...

The day I get off my ass and do this, I would install it in the engine bay as well. When connecting stuff, I would hate to have access it where you would have to take off panels.

As many have said, it really doesn't get wet under the hood, you will be fine.

Knew I had a pic. It doesn’t get wet and is easily accessible.
