Default fuse panel cover

just want to see what people are using to keep the fuse panel cover on the driver side dash to stay on. i had velcro and had to re do it twice because the florida heat just melts it.

Use industrial velcro and it will hold in the heat.

Mines got that hard plastic type velcro. The kind that snaps into each other... Not sure what the proper name for it is, but it's never given me a problem.
