Answer here depends on how extensive you plan your rewiring to be. If you're after a fusebox that'll take modern blade-type fuses, that sounds like you're rewiring pretty extensively. In that case, be aware you can get well-made, brand new blade-type fuseboxes for not too much money that will often be easier to work with than boxes yanked from the yard. |

yes would like to rewire a good amount - this will be later - need to address possible safety issues like brakes first - recommendations for new fuse panels - or ones to stay away from - thank you - oo3 |

You can get a new fuse kit from Painless for $125 bucks. It comes with the panel, fuses, wires, and instructions. Thats what I would go for. |

Fuhgeddaboudit. "Painless" Wiring's stuff is overpriced junk, and it's anything but painless to install. Which fusebox to pick out depends on how many circuits you need. |

Well, its complicated, but if your starting from nothing (and know how to wire), its the cheapest solution. (in my book anyway.) Go with what you want, this is only my opinion, nothing more. |

Perfect thread to hijack  Since I'm planning to gradually upgrade things in my van (B100), I'd appreciate ideas for a fuse & relay box so I can start things right. Here's what I'm thinking about so far: • HEI upgrade • Halogen Headlights upgrade • Fog-lights rewire • Tachometer & vacuum gauge light wiring • Electric choke • Alarm system rewire • Aftermarket Stereo rewire |
