RE: fuse block replacement

["Aaron Ness" <aaron@makuta.com>]

I thought about doing this last week, and I found that the connectors on the
back of the '84 panel aren't the same as the '82 panel.  The '82 uses sqare
connectors, and the '84 uses rectangular connectors (unless the potsmoking
hillbilly replaced it at some point before I got the car, which could
explain why the electrical system was so hosed on that car).

'82 Scirocco
'84 Scirocco - parts still available
'70 Bug - Hibernating
'87 Jeep Cherokee 4.0
