I've seen pictures of converted/rebuilt fuse boxes
for the people that had the melting fuse box.
I have a different problem. I find that the euro
style cylindrical fuses just suck for reliable
connections. I took a bump fast and lost my
wipers/turn signals the other day. THis is something
that happens pretty regularly. Visually, the contact
looks good, but you must jiggle the fuse around and
reseat it a few times before the turn signal/wipers
come back on.
It _might_ be a relay issue, but I doubt it.
At any rate, how tricky is it to convert these fuse
boxes to the US style blade connectors ? Or barring
that, what should I use to clean everything thats not
plastic in the whole fuse compartment ?
I've also got foglights that have never been used.
I did a front bumper swap this summer and got some cool
foglights. However, they wont light up for anything,
so im guessing i've got blown bulbs. However, the
screw holding the foglights shut is completely rusted.
Any suggestions on what to use to get a rusted screw
out of plastic ?
