What is the correct part number of the engine fuse box for a 2004 and how do you replace one?
for relay 43 and 45, does the notch go on the top or on the bottom?

How do you replace the engine fuse box on a 2004 corvette? is it just removing the nut and the tabs on each side and pull up?

Why are you replacing your fusebox ??…if you want the correct part number I’d stop by your local GM dealership and ask the parts guy…a relay if a 4 blade can go in either direction and work.

Thank you for the response but I believe that part number is for the interior fuse box, not the engine bay fuse box.

The reason for replacing is that the plastic had melted from relay 43 burning up

Plenty of recyclers with websites, or posts for sale on FB and here of part-outs which would have it.
