Default ok so i need a fuse box

ok i have a 99 6spd coupe and i need a fuse box. so my question is, do the fuse boxes differ from year to year or are they all compatible?
i figure 97-98 are different then 99 to 04 but dont really no. i'm sure if i did some research i can answer my own question but i really dont have time, plus i trust you guys better then just looking around the web.
thanks

odds are it is the same 'base', but the electronics will need to be the correct layout for your VIN. I only say this because I just put in a 2004 'engine side' box in my '97.....the model years couldn't be any farther apart, yet it worked fine. So, the same may be true for the internal box. Did I make myself clear on that?
