Hmmm, pretty sure Bentley said fuse position 13 for the blower and
rear defrost is 30A.  I will double check that and check the owners
manual as well.  Mine is an '86 Wolfsburg.

Thanks to David, and John for the photos.  I see you drilled the
whole to the right of the rib rather than the left as in the original
Mullendore.  I think this is better and read some on the samba to the
same effect.  Also read that the motor is at an upward angle from the
hole so I'll look some more.
