Which Fuse Box ..... the Drivers side one is a little bit aukward to remove as they have to be removed from underneath.... but I understand the battery side one is little easier.

Someone who has done this job will I am sure be along soon to advise.

As Snoopy says the aux box near the battery is easy,unfortunately the headlamp fuses are in the main box,which is secured underneath by four 10mm nuts.You will need a long socket extension,a light and a mirror in the footwell unless you are very thin ! there are numerous sockets underneath which are best removed after you have loosened it off.The big socket on the front of the box,under the bonnet needs care when replacing it,so that all the pins are in the right holes.

With reference to the BIG socket. If you get it in first time it is most likely NOT in correctly they can and often do align one row of pins out and give some very strange results so take care with that one .

I did mine recently and can send you some photos if the case is still current.
Send me a Private Message and I will get back.
