remove fuse box
How do get the fuse box off the interior side of the fire wall? I need to do the red wire fix, because of a bad pin in the firewall side of the connection, and I need to get to the back of the fuse box to get to the red wire. Most my fire wall insulation is intact. Do I need to cut some of this out to get to screws? Thanks once again for the help.

I'm guessing this is about a 63-67 car?
Disconnect the 2 harnesses that plug into the fuse panel, on the engine side of the firewall.
From the interior side of the car, there are two, 5/16" (I think that's the size) screws that hold the fuse box to the firewall, although one of those 2 screws is obscured by one of the fuses.

It' done
Thanks guys for the information and pictures. I did as advised and ran a 12 gauge wire through the firewall and soldered the connections. It was kind of tight quarters under the dash, because I didn't want to split the wire bundle very far. But it worked out good, now hopefully the air-i-tis is a thing of the past.
