Glass Fuse Conversion

It's also important to know that the American and British fuses are rated in different ways. The American fuses are rated for the load they can carry. British fuses are rated for the load at which they will blow.

Does the OE block fit in same hole? Seems like different dimensions. And a different number of fuses.

I know what you mean, but I was thinking about it the other day because I have a Blue Sea fuse block that is the same single row, and I think the same number in the row, as what I have in the stock set up. So it would still be the same layout as what my stock fuse map shows on the inside of the cover. And the one blade fuse block I saw someone else do, seemed to be lower quality build than the Blue Sea stuff.

So why do you say you would use the OE block if you did it again? (Other than the good point that Chris brought up.)
It doesn't look clean. I tried to keep everything nice and tight, but it's not possible.


The stock keeps the wires behind and you can put the cover.


If I get bored one day, I might do it.
