[W126 Coupe] FUSEBOX (Mister McGoo)

Bellamy,
I need the whole fusebox because the cover became warped when the diode
that controls the front seats got burned to a crisp. I don't know why
the fuse that protects it did not give way.
Some of the relays' plastic cover melted but it looks like they still
work because I did not notice anything odd because I drove the car this
weekend, except of course for the fronts seats which can't be moved.
