This is fairly much a direct replacement for the frail standard fuse box with a little jiggery pokery and enlarging a couple of holes with a drill.
It is not the most robust but better than the original which corrodes round the ring terminals on the underside and in my case; cracked invisibly!!!

I did away with the fuse holder buy using two female Japanese spade connectors and a car bayonet fuse, although not original it isn’t an issue if you need to replace a fuse.
