Where would you be able to find that stuff? Do you think a hardware store like Home Depot or Lowe's would have it?

McMaster Carr sells it. I really don't think you'll find it at a hardware store.

What suxs even more is that they only sell it in minimum sheets which by the time you order and pay for shipping it would be cheaper to buy a set from me!!

PM me on what you would charge for those size sheets. Fuse boxes only though. I like seeing my yellow Optima under the hood.

McMaster isn't as cheap as I thought it was. Not even for the brushed finish. I think I can do without that for now.
