Has anyone with a D4 yet needed to access the in-car fuse box? I was wondering whether there was any design improvement in the access to those darned little blighters that could be retrofitted to a D3? Dr. Ian Malcolm:

Transgenic tomato anyone?

If it's not moved, then yes, that one. Thanks!  Dr. Ian Malcolm:

Top Tip: I found a pair of surgical clamps, they're like long scissors that lock together, they're good for getting fuses out on my D3. 
Seriously hope the D4 fuse box is a better design though - I've lost a few fuses into the depths of the dash, with no chance of recovering them

I have a pair, but can't always get my hand in to use them at the angles required ; top tip for anyone though Mine are curved too; I thought that'd make them perfect. I suspect what we need is one of those keyhole surgery jobbies with the camera at the tool tip. That'd probably work OK in the space provided... Dr. Ian Malcolm:

Looks the same as the D3. Drop glove box, fuse box is located on the left next the blower motor in a vertical layout. Still difficult to get fuses out. Will try to get a photo i the next few days. MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

Thanks Russell, no need; sounds like nothing has been done to make it any more sensible. Thanks for your time Dr. Ian Malcolm:
