I am confused. Good information, but why do you recommend a 35 and 17 amp fuse? And show a picture of a fuse that will not fit the retainers?

Dick,
Sorry for the confusion, Dick. I really was trying to clarify things here.
The photo I included was solely to illustrate that the British barrel fuses referenced in the post by Denis are in fact barrel shaped and do not have the pointed-end that our GBC fuses do.
It was taken from a British car parts supplier and confirmed the information previously referenced by Denis.
Once again, for a Pantera or a Mangusta the correct fuse to use is the pointed-end GBC fuse rated at the amperage originally assigned to each circuit.
The caution only applies to cars originally equipped with the British Lucas barrel shaped fuse.
