Assuming RHD

It's under the Drivers Wheel area below the dash / column

There is a panel that unscrews and then folds down on two wire rods to reveal the fuse board and relays etc

Oblong panel about 12" x 6" that is coloured either cream or grey like the lower dash

2 screws from memory then drops down on the wire hinges

Easy enough to do just be careful not to stretch the wiring loom etc

All the fuses (ceramic) usually need to be removed and cleaned (one by one) and also clean the fuse contact on the board itself

They hate damp and age and oxidise, a good looking (not blow) fuse is not always enough!
