Has that been a problem with the new Power Distribution Boards?

In 2005 we mounted all of our electric upsidedown and we had no problem with fuses falling out. We also used ruber bands to help hold in the PWM cables. This year every thing is mounted upsideright and our fuses have almost fallen out many times. We have to keep checking them and pushing them back in.
