I *think* the wiring in the bag is a factory fuse kit for either the footwell blowers or the AC blower post 84. The other guys here will know.

The kit is for the front AC blower. I'm waiting for one to come in from Germany, ordered thru Pelican.

Thanks gazzer/NY65912

Guess I will be off to Autozone today to get the pieces to make the fuse up

Will I still need to do the Blower mod as my car is 1976 and no AC?

No. If you do not have AC you have no blower.

Peteinengland - the other must do mod is the headlight relays - check out the JWest headlight relay kit. Very easy to install.

It appears to be 911.612.077.00 which seems to be a fused harness for the front AC blower. Probably a smart addition of one has AC. My recently removed front blower was melted.

Totally agree on the headlight relay mod...seeing darkened wire insulation at the headlight switch was a clue.

Might be placebo effect but I have to say my headlights seem brighter too.

Ordering the jwest kit thanks
