Looks to be the same as this one I was looking at on Amazon:
[ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002PHXVGQ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3DZMBT0I IAXRS"]Amazon.com: 50A MANUAL RESET BREAKER: Sports & Outdoors@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31LnQhcOlfL.@@AMEPARAM@@31LnQhcOlfL[/ame]

I liked it because it seemed to be aimed at marine use.

Bob, a few questions.
My car is now 12 years old and I know CB's wear with time, so I would like to replace the original if for no other reason than that!
I noticed on my car the original CB has a metal body and hold down tabs, these new ones are plastic. Do these need to be metal for grounding purposes? Will the spread be the same so it will be as you say, a direct replacement?
Dave
