They're behind and slightly above it, not in it

Top left, behind the box. There's two of them, one behind the other. Most connections are on the furthest one so the one you see is pretty empty.

Take the screw out of the bottom of the fuse box, lift it off the brackets and pull gently forwards to give better access to the crowns.

I had the same problem with my main beam light. If I remember correctly, I took the clocks out and soldered in a blue LED.
Also the flexy circuit board had a break in the track going to the backlights, so I scraped the plastic coating away, soldered the track together, then put a dab of "glue gun" glue over the top to protect it

I think, from the first post here, he wants to know where the fuse box is. Which is behind the glove box . .

Having read it again I think you may very well be right

May have gone off on a tangent there
Although he did also mention that the main beam and back lighting doesn't work

My question for this evening was in fact about the fuse/relay holder and how to pull it away in order to expose the crowns and wiring. Is it just the one screw at the bottom?
Why would the glass be anything other than half full?

Mine is slightly different as it's an early one. But looking at the photo above, it may be two screws?
