Is there any other prevention? I keep tools in the car, so I guess I'll always be able to re-set or torque the fusebox bolts, if that's really all it takes...

I kind of have the urge to install the pushbutton starter anyway, in case it glitches and I need to go without time to mess around.
Is that insane ??
They come from the factory not tight enough, if it has ever been out most mechanics are afraid to tighten it as far as needed.. To reiterate "way past I'm afraid it will strip".
This is a once a week fix lately and every one has been "I tightened them".
