    73 S - engine bay 3-fuse panel cover - need part number

    Can anyone tell me if the cover to the small 3-fuse panel on the engine bay electrical panel has a part number (perhaps embossed on the inside)? My Porsche parts guy ordered a new panel thinking it may came with the cover...no luck...so a PN would be helpful. Thanks!

    The 3 fuses have no individual cover, just the larger relay cover. Fuse designation is molded into the big cover.

    Thank you both for your replies. I too did not think this fuse block had a cover, however, a friend found one this past weekend at a local vintage Porsche swap meet and was quite happy with his score...noting how difficult they are to find (he also has a 73 MY). I then looked at my fuse block and saw that it indeed has a threaded hole for a cover/knob assembly as those on the larger fuse blocks in the trunk...therefore along with what he found and said, I was certain mine was missing. I will have my parts guy run the PN offered by 'classic' and see what happens.

    I've never seen a Porsche 3 pin fuse box with the screw on cover, although the split window VW Beetle uses the same fuse box with a cover.

    Here's some pictures stolen from thesamba

    I have the three additional fuses at the top of the main fuse blocks on my '71, they have a cover but it only fits over the two lower fuses and leaves the top one exposed.
    Inside the cover is W Germany 22533 and a K with a circle around it.

    My 69 E has the 3 fuse cover, and it's still in place. It is rare to see them, as almost all have been lost over the years.

    My all-original '69 S has the cover also. There's a paper label on the inside.

    Model Year 1970 also had the 3 fuse cover.
    In MY 1971 Porche went to the larger cover. Two knurled screws were used to secure the cover through mid MY1973. At some point mid MY run in 1973 (January 1973?) Porsche switched and started to secure the cover by using two winged screws.
