Hi All,

Last Friday night, after fooling around with the brake lights, attempting to figure out why the right one wouldn't work (seems to be the connection w/that plasticy copper thingy with the bulb plug), the fuse (#8) that controls the clock and the dome light blew, replaced it and it blew again, almost immediately. I haven't tried to put a second fuse in it because I am now down to my last one. The fuse has voltage going to it. So I basically have two questions: 1) Where can I get more fuses (unfortunately where I live does not have a good, well-stocked, foreign parts store. 2) Has any one had a similiar experience who could provide insight into this problem? I'm assuming I have a short somewhere.
It's all rather sad. These are the first electrical problems I've had with this car. And my clock ran perfectly before.

Thanks for all of your help.
