Larry Was the fuse strip glued or taped on? I wonder if it is the spare external GP fuse for the fender wall fuse carrier for the relay? Dwight

I was afraid I was missing something important. BTW - I rec'd the new GP Relay from Rusty today and installed it. No problems - it fit perfectly and the car starts as it should. Unfortunately, we won't know how it starts after spending a cool night outside. One thing I noticed though - the new one that came in a Hella box, had a large fuse strip across one end. It was hidden by the cover once installed but the one I removed (with a MB sticker on it) didn't have a exposed fuse. I suppose there may have been one inside the case. Does anyone know for sure?
