    Hi Guys,
    Is it still possible to get hold of a replacement VL Fuse Rail like the one from Niche Electronic and Industrial Products in Perth?
    Mine is absolutely cactus, a fire hazzard and I'm amazed it still works.
    If someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.

    Cheers
    Jon

    Oh wow, fuse rail. Thank god. I thought you said fuel rail for a minute there! :p

    Wow... ummm, you're probably not bad off looking around wreckers? There's a number of VLs out there, and i'm sure you could find one in perfect condition for close to no money :)

    Fitting a new fuse rail is a big pain in the rear. But can be done.

    Wreckers are your friend

    Hi 88GreenVN,
    I can get hold of a brand new fuse rail, the problem I've got now is that nobody can tell me where to get hold of the brass coloured pin/fuse holders. My local Holden dealer tells me they aren't listed.:bang:
    I've got the Patience & time to do the job, just can't get hold of new pin/fuse holders. HMMM

    Hey jatsvl
    I've shot an email off to Niche Electronic and Industrial Products. Unfortunately he's been ill, They've been chatting about it here http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=118796&page=10&highlight=fuse+rail
