Hi Jon
 
I've used the rubber tool dip you normally coat wrench handles with to  
insulate terminals and wires from moisture and vibration. I brushed it on. They 
 
have actually come out with a brush on terminal insulator called "liquid  
electrical tape" to do the same thing.
 
Throw on a few coats to build it up and it's like a plastic coating  covering 
all exposed metal. It also insulates the wires/terminals from vibration  at 
the terminal to wire joint.
 
I went with a 30# pressure switch ( Summit Racing) as a safety light for  oil 
pressure and a big ol bright yellow drag shift light pointing right at my  
big mug so I don't miss it. 
 
Otto
