Scary moment.....while driving home with lights on and rear fog lights, my fuse box caught fire. It started at the rear fog light fuse. Fortunately, I had a bottle of drinking water and was able to put the flames out (scary yellow flames!). Surprisingly, everything electrical (less rear fog lights) worked and I was able to drive the vehicle home! I need to locate a fuse box asap. I found one on vlvworld.com but I want to search more for a better price ($139.95 new from vlvworld). I did purchase complete new tail lights with circuits from Vinatage Volvo 3 months ago. I'm thinking this might be the culprit. Any advise, suggestions, information is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Vinnie
