Fuse box

Post by Village Idiots »

Has anybody fitted a new fuse box to their car (mine's an injected Scala)?
With the fuse box unfastened and unhooked from its mounts, there is hardly any slack in the cabling to get to the multiplugs.
Is it possible to feed more cable through from the engine compartment?
Or is it just a sod of a job?
How many multiplugs are there?
Any help or tips much appreciated.

I had the same problem when I changed mine, I could not find any more slack in the cables, you just need small hands :hugegrin:

i did myn about 9 months ago.... thought it was a piece of piss, especially when compared to the fusebox on the mk4 polo that i did once before!!!! just pull it out and turn it downwards a bit and start at the front of the multiconnectors and work your way back!
