Fuse Block Cooked, Help

My brake lights have a tendency to stay on. I believe this is way the fuse block is cooked. A larfe wire is burned off and the two that it powered don't look so good. The Question, NOS or Aftermarket fuse block? Since I;m not big on soldering It looked like I might as well go aftermarket and put the box somewhere easy to get to, Maybe the inner fender. Unless someone can convince me that putting in a NOS box isn't going to make me pull out my hair!
Thanks

What year and model? If it's an mid 80's or earlier, I would say you can go aftermarket. It it's a later model, they have a whole lot of stuff in them and it may be easier with a junkyard unit.

A 70 should be simple enough. It may be just as cheap to get a universal harness with the box included.
