This looks nice!
Is it a direct one-to-one replacement? i.e. can a knuckle head like me, whose terrified of wiring, be able to follow some basic instructions to install it and still be able to start the car when finished?


Yes 100%, anybody with little wiring experience will be able to install these with ease. We want to make it as easy for the installer as possible, so we will provide instructions and a video.

@peteyd
Does it fit early cars with the hot terminal on the side?
I've seen aftermarket replacements touch that terminal and put 12V into the metal backing plate and/or dead short the battery to ground.

We have checked the fitment on our 914/6 and there is no interference with the hot terminal. So no worries in that department.

Going to round off the corners?


The corners will be rounded. Thank you for pointing that out. I will laser cut them today and bring them out for anodizing this week.

Peter, great concept and looks good quality, obviously a lot of effort to design and produce these. Kudos. A couple of questions:

* Will your fuse panel body fit the factory mounting plates if we drill the end holes?

* Similarly do we need to use your mounting plate or can we use the factory plate? Asking because there are at least 4 different factory plates which hold different arrangements of the relays and your plate does not match any of the factory hole patterns.

* Please describe how your fusepanel busses those certain specific circuits together as on the factory fusepanel, as the busses are not evident in the photos posted.


@JeffBowlsby
The design of our fuse block does not allow the use of the original plate. However a savy DIY'er could easily print an adapter plate if they wish to have the most original look.

Our plate accommodates all the different versions and can hold all the relay sockets, including the latching (square relay) headlight relay.

The buses are internal to the circuit board design. No adapters required.

@HugoNL914 Yes it will be. Our distributor in Holland will carry them once they are released.

@NARP74

We have just received all the clear covers from George and we are assembling the boxes. We are also working on getting the product on the website along with instructions on YouTube and a printed instruction also.

We are hoping for a September release now.

I don't think we will be doing a group buy as the product is complete and group buys usually help fund the product development(at least in my eyes).
