Continental Fusebox Connection?

Post by bmouthboyo »

Silly question but can't seem to find the answer anywhere. I have run a new thicker 12v cable to under my dash and want to hook a continental style fusebox up.

I would like this older style just because my early van uses the same type of fuses so easier to keep a load to hand.

How do I connect the wires to the terminals? Bullet crimps?

I know you stated you want to keep the fuses the same. Though if you were in the future running bigger draw stuff to the added fusebox. I have the version below installed. Is has the added facility that you can hook extra earths off it as well.
