I have read several threads here about the external strip fuse that Mercedes added as a dealer-fix item to the 1987 300D Turbo. My car has had the same thing done in an aftermarket fashion but the fuse and its holder were under-rated for the job and recently melted (but still work).

I'd like to install the factory parts as shown in the EPC, but I don't know the exact location (suspect it might go on the inner fender ahead of the fuse box). Can anyone provide me with a picture of their car showing the blower strip fuse?

The FSM has a picture but my CD-ROM version is, of course, almost impossible to make out what's in the picture.
