	I need to completely rewire my Marlin. The MTA modular system is the sort of fuse box I'd like - www.polevolt.co.uk/acatalog/Modular_Fuse_and_Relay_System.html but is going to work out quite expensive so am thinking of a salvage item from a car. Anyone suggest a suitable fuse box ? Requirements are standard blade fuses, relays, rectangular shape & cover. No problem removing old pins (got a set of extractors) and will be properly rewired so how connected to harness unimportant. Thanks. Paul H

	Mercedes 190e fusebox is reasonably adaptable.

	As plasticfantastic said, Mk2 Golf ones are very similar to the one you posted. I've got about 6 spares ones if you want one to mess around with.

	Use to have a 1.8GL auto MKII Golf and fuse box was faulty (used to be common problem) so am reluctant to use one of those - as they say "once bitten, twice shy" Paul H

	Most moderns I've had have had really good fuse boxes, but most are rare aswel! Mk3 golf ones seem pretty cheap though, never had an issue with mine, or my Saab but those seem expensive.

	mk2/mk3 golf ones? you having a laugh they are curse word lol. however ive just broke a b5 98 passat(other vw be similar.) they have a small box for fuses then a seperate strip for relays and power source, i did think to myself it would be a nice neat set up for something else. like this www.ebay.co.uk/itm/97-00-VOLKSWAGEN-PASSAT-B5-1-9-TDI-FUSE-BOX-/321336180905?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4ad12100a9 i can get some better detailed pic if wanted then loom is in my scrap pile.
