T6C Fuse Panel Grommet Missing?

#1 Post by Tom Perazzo »

Should there be two grommets in the vicinity of the fuse panel?
I have one that goes through the body.

But the question is should there be another one that goes through the removalable bracket the holds the fuse panel? Seem like there should be something there? What am I missing?

There is only one large washer.
And I think the bracket for the fuse block and relays does not use a washer.
This picture same as yours . I do not have a picture from the trunk side

Thanks Hugo. You answered my question and it's always good to see similar photos.
I wanted to check before I go through all the trouble of connecting all those wires!

I don't have a C, but I had a local guy take a photo for me. No grommet on the bracket. bulkhead only. His looks like yours.

Please, no wire nuts in car wiring. Better connect that wire to number 6 fuse.

I thought that was intentional to get a rise out of us. Hugo was on it like a duck on a June bug.

Hey, it sounds better than "stink on (manure)." :P
