Which fuse box

I have a locost running a 1600. Pinto ' I have Sierra wiring loom , the question is do I need to get a Sierra fuse box or can I get a after market type as I'm not using a lot of the functions in the genuine fuse box , ie heaters wipers etc etc

Are you using the sierra stalk switches? If so all the relays and change over functions are in the top of the sierra fuse box.

I kept it but stripped out all the fused functions not required and moved all the ones I wanted into the top half of the box and then just cut off the bottom half that was empty.

First try of the lights and they all worked as they should!

Building a 2.0 Pinto engined Indy (and using Sierra stalks) I used these fuse holders...

Vehicle Wiring Products were a pleasure to deal with and delivered fast too. I made an Aluminium plate on which to mount the fuse holders and some relays - it worked fine and passed SVA without an issue.
