New Fuse Block Configuration

Doug
i bought some green wire and added about 2' to each of the 5 wires. then pushed them all thru the grommet. once pushed in, the connections to the 2' leads were inside the firewall and did not show. then i pushed a single 14g wire in to the power side of the fuse panel and attached it to the original lower fuse. it was not really tough at all and makes everything pretty clean. just mark what each wire is when you push it thru. i put different marks on them with a sharpie so i knew which circuit was which when inside the car. did the same thing with the two white wires (fuel pump and OD???). i bought my fuse block off Amazon i believe. they have one with more circuits if you like.

as far as the headlight inline fuse, i added that where the wiring diagram i got from Tom's imports showed. i just put it where i could easily reach up under the dash and get to it. below is a picture of where it shows the fuse. hopefully you can blow it up if you do not have the diagram.

Hope that helps and good luck. but it is an easy job.
 
Great information. Thanks again.

Drone Dog, I want to keep the fuse box in it's original location and am looking at another option after researching this forum. Keep you posted.

Patrick, I received the 7 fuse block with the bus switched to the right side. PM me with your cell phone # and I will send a photo via text, if you wish.

Regards, Douglas
