6v -> 12v (& Fuse Box)
I'm seeking opinions and advice on converting my 65' from 6v to 12volt.
Any links, previous posts, topics and projects would be greatly appreciated.
Secondly, where is a good place to source an after market fuse box with at least 8 slots. The current one is cactus and will need to be replaced.
Also seeking good ideas people may have while my Beetle (eventual Baja) is off the road and I have some time to devote to wiring and other
modifications.
Regards,
B.

You can buy 8 or 10 fuse boxes made by Narnva that use the push in fuses.... much better than the originals....

Thanks Ian & Lee for the advice. I'll call them and ask them to order a 10 slot in for me.
Any useful 6v ~> 12 volt links you know of?
