Secure them? Mine seem pretty snug and tight in there without being screwed down or whatever.

Yeh i have herd that running the power through the standard set up can blow fuses, although the balists in theory should only be drawing 12v which is what the standard lights would draw? the balist is where all the amp happens? right?
