I'm new to the 914 World always loved them. I just got a 73 1.7 and I was a dummy and bought it on e-bay site unseen except for the pictures. Not all is bad. But the wiring is a mess and was wondering if anybody has changed over to a updated fuse box and if they did was if difficult to do? I have the colored schematics. I have also since looking deeper I have some disconnected wires under the carpet center tunnel area. Like I'm saying I'm new to 914's but have mechanical background and would appreciate any help.

The factory original fusepanel can be perfectly functional and reliable if its clean and the contacts are burnished. Most 914s still run them. Unless you just want the convenience of the updated fuse style there is little to be gained by changing it out for a generic unit that has been adapted to the 914.
