    I'm trying to get my '85 308 ready for Concorso, and I have a couple of unfilled spots in my spare fuse/light kit. Does anyone know what is supposed to be in there?

    I currently have 3 light bulbs (GE 1934, GE 1073, and a GE 67). I also have 5 fuses (3-8Amp, and 2-16 amp).

    I have 3 empty holders, 2 fairly tall and narrow than the light bulb holders, and 2 short and about the same width as the light bulb holders, with a flared top.

    Can anyone tell me what goes in those holders?

    TIA

    In Europe, they also included a H4 55/60watt halogen headlight bulb too.

    Put a 20 hour candle, some matches, and prayer beads in there. See what those concours judges say then!

    That would account for the eleventh holder. Thanks, Dave

    Mine has the lettering "ROTOR" in the top....how about that?

    You are talking about the round plastic box in the jack bag, right?

    That's the one, Bubba. The box with all the rusty fuses in it.

    I'm missing the container itself. Of course I've searched and searched. I actually bought the bottom half on ebay a couple weeks ago ($1.00). BUt since someone brought it up I thought I'd chime in and ask if anyone might have any leads????

    They come up on eBay periodically. Just remember one thing, the early cars with the ceramic fuses have a different container than the later ones with blade fuses. The last couple I've noticed have been kind of pricey, selling for over $100.

    ICP has them for $65. Just the container, not everything that goes in it. Go to the Ferrari parts page and look for item #FR118545

    Blade fuses? Were they for the 328? I've got an '85 308 and I've still got the ceramics (soon to be replaced by Birdman's fusebox, when not being shown :) )

    I don't know which models, but I've seen bulb containers with slots for blade fuses rather than the holes for the ceramic fuses.

    So one does have to ask about the container and find out if it's appropriate for their car.
