    Saw this on FB. Unconfirmed, but a source (the neighbor) says that the owner was trying to install LEDs on his Mirage when this happened.

    So much for the new-car smell.

    The electrics are supposed to pop a fuse, not burn di ba?

    That's the five hundred thousand peso question. He'll have to see the fine print as "unauthorized tampering" (or something like that) might void the insurance.

    There's insurance for Acts of God or Acts of Nature. Is there also a clause for Acts of Stupidity?

    Everything that burns turns into carbon.

    Carbon is a good conductor.

    Once sunog na, it will short circuit at kung hindi tama ang kabit ng fuse, electrical fire follows.

    That's when DIY becomes Destroy It Yourself.
