    5 amp bullet fuses

    Decided to change out the fuses in the 73 today and went to two different autoparts stores but neither carried the 5 amp fuses. So I figured I'd just get them from Pelican but they don't list them either.

    Can any body point me to a source for these?

    I think your going to be hard pressed to find 5amp GBC fuses. I would just go with the 8 amp fuses. I did a couple searches on the web and came up with a few places offering the 5 amp GBC fuse. You might try a local shop that deals with German cars specially BMW they used them for quite a while so did VW, & Mercedes-Benz

    I got lucky and managed to buy up a few 5 amp fuses a couple years ago, but the Porsche mechanics all told me 8 amp will work fine in their place. The 5 amp is a yellow fuse if I'm not mistaken. The previous owner of my car had all the wrong fuses in all the wrong places...I'm surprised he didn't have huge problems electrically.
