I have a Spec Boxster that I'm wiring some extra items in (cool suit, blower, camera, etc) and want to tap into the fuse panel from the back rather than the front as it has been relocated in the footwell and I don't want any dangling fuse jumper wires that could get accidently kicked out.

I have several empty slots in the fuse panel that I want to use. What I'm looking for is some fuse terminal inserts that I can insert into the empty slots in the fuse block from the back (simlar to those pictured below). These are the terminals that each prong of the fuse slides into from the front. I cannot find a Porsche part number or any reference anywhere to these terminals. My dealer says they are only available in very large quantities. I could buy a salvage fuse block, but I only need two terminals. I've even tried a Volkwagen part that I was told was simlar, but it did not fit correctly.

Does anyone have any ideas where I get a couple of these for my 986 Boxster fuse panel?

Yes - those are the ones I tried. The 4.8mm terminals are too wide and the 2.8mm terminals are too small. They don't look like the Porsche ones either. I appreciate your response - youu wouldn't think this would be so hard!

Has anyone had luck finding these fuse terminals? I am trying to add a circuit in the rear of my '06 Cayman. The fuse terminal goes into fuse holder 99965074740. The powered side of the fuse terminal is already there, so I am just trying to add the other terminal which leads to my circuit.

I tried the Audi/VW part number N90732703. It is close but just doesn't fit. It slides about half way in and then stops. Porsche dealer part department couldn't find any part numbers and they don't seem to sell repair wires or wire terminals like the Audi/VW dealers.

When I added heated seats last year, I had to add a connector to the fuse block.  The directions I had called for using an Audi part (Audi 000-979-227) This is a wire with fittings on each end.  You cut the wire in half and the solder it to the wire(s) that you are trying to connect.  It fit perfectly in my fuse block.  I hope this helps.
