 Wow I need to add to this question! I have a 68 bay. And I might add, great link McFly, thanks! Yet my problem is that all the fuses on my bus are 16 amp and ratwell's site says they should be all 8 amp. Any comment anyone?....Oly

You should only have 2 16 amp fuses, the rest should be 8 amp. Sounds like somebody didn't want to buy two sets of fuses and just went with the bigger one. This could be a potential electrical fire hazard, as the wiring was designed for a fuse that would blow at 8 amps.

 Well I double checked ratwell's site and it does show that the 68&69's should all be 8 amp. Gosta you're right for the later bays, they have two 16 amp. I guess I'll swap the 16's with 8's this weekend and see what happens.
