I think there are quality and cheapie Euro fuses sold and I probably bought the later.
Interesting that M-B ran separate wires for L & R to the rear running lights. That must have been a safety concern so you at least have one light burning.

Same for the window switches, they fused them diagonally I assume so only one window would be operated at a time on that circuit. They thought well usually you roll down windows in pairs, the two fronts then the two rears. That way the both circuits are active with only one window motor operating at a time on that circuit. They really put a lot of thought into these cars.
