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

cheers chaps, but where is it? i cant find the bugger!

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

well it's saved him asking where the crowns are

Thanks chaps. I'll have it apart tomorrow. After I've been to work and borrowed some stuff:D

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?

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