I read a post here not too long ago about an OEM fuse panel cover on eBay for $150. Not long after I had an incident where I ended up picking fuses off the floor of my 914 in the dark when the headlights wouldn't go on. It got me thinking that I needed to get a fuse panel cover, but I didn't want to spend much to get one. So I looked at what was available for VWs and found the following VW part fits just fine:
The one I found was marked 111-555D but I think the VW part # is 111-937-555D Fits Bug's 72 - ' 79, Bus's ' 73 - ' 79, Ghia's ' 72 - ' 74, and Type 3's '70 - ' 73 also Van ' 80 - ' 85 AND NOW the 914! And you can find it for under $10. |

Modern blade fuses rule, for a reason. I will never drop money towards the old bullet, kick and spill over the floor crap. Engman and Jwest (vendors here) have WAY better replacement options.

JWest Upgraded 914 Fuse Box JWST-914-FSBX2 $95.00 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I can buy a lifetime supply of chicklets for $95. |
