If the box dosen't heat up, I would just wrap it up in a plastic bag and silicone the bag closed.<P>if the box dose heat up, then I would just silicone all the openings closed and keep the box somewhere it will keep cool.

They have boxes in their electronics section. I think they're called Project Boxes. I don't know how big, but they are a hard plastic. Maybe get one of those that will fit your metal box and velcro it in so it don't rattle around. Drill holes so the wires can come out, and use rubber gromets to keep it water tight. If you can't find one I can look at my local radio shack for one. If not, then maybe build a box out of fiberglass or something. Good luck bro.

All I have to say after seeing them last week in person is "Wow!" those things are crazy bright. They hurt my eyes when I was looking at them close, LOL<P>This is definately a cool mod to do but expensive.
