 fuse holders, so i was just browsing ebay, for fuses, when along came one of these, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/12-volt-Standard-Blade-Fuse-Holder-Box-Car-6-fuses-/280435848295?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item414b477467#ht_1137wt_1139has anyone used these before? i was maybe thinking of replacing the current fuse holder in the loom for one of those, or am i mad? and as theres 6 there, theres enough to facter in acceserises, such as the heated read window im now getting, and also fuse the cd player etc, (although already fused) what'ya think?

Re: fuse holders, I put a similar one in the Dyane, from halfrauds. Make sure you secure the wires well and there shouldn't be a problem. It leaves room for more gadgets!

Re: fuse holders, I fitted one of these in the 2cv, as some of the connections on the original holder weren't looking too good.

Re: fuse holders, It's not a mad idea at all James. The standard fuse boxes aren't the most reliable in the world but I wouldn't bother changing it without a good reason. This is the one I fitted on my car,  viewtopic.php?f=5&t=137&start=20
