Poll - Go mk2? was: Replacement Fuse Panel

[spewey at comcast.net (Spewey)]

Addendum:

The fuse panel has a jillion pieces of metal in there and you can open 
it to check for corrosion but you will never close it again.  Up here in 
the Northland (or anywhere else where old cars actually age) things are 
different than in Cali where it almost never rains and if it does it 
rains on non-rusty cars whose itty bitty copper bits never go through 
extreme temperature cycles.

If you are sourcing a used fuse panel, look for a total absence of 
corrosion on the outside to not waste time installing one with yuk on 
the inside.  It may be possible to find a 79 Audi Fox in a yard in Santa 
  Mongelica with a decent one but you'd be wasting your time yanking 
that from a yard anywhere else and putting it in if brand new is only 
$100.  Someone a few weeks ago said they could get new for $55.  It all 
depends on whether your stock plug and play application is even available.
