I did a search and came up blank.Yesterday my radio went out and then I noticed that my cigertte lighter and dome light also went out.My owners manual says the fuse box is located behind the glove box and is supposed to be a little panel that says fuse box.I don't see anything like that.I have allready taken out those cassette slots a longe time ago so there is nothiing there in the way.I wouldn't think that I would have to take out the glove box itself would I?

Geez, my '79's fuse box is located over by the emer. brake. I wouldn't have thought they would go for such a drastict change in a couple of years, specially with the a/c on that side. Let us know where you find it

Fuse box on my 82 is kinda above where your left foot is when you are driving.You gotta get way down and look up at it.It is tucked up there out of the way. 82collectorshark38700.6628935185

On the firewall(inside), to the left of the brake pedal, about 3-4" in from the kick-panel. You sure you got an owner's manual for a Corvette?

Possibly you have the very rare "fuse-box delete" option?

Turn your turn signal on(with the key on), and follow the sound!(click-click)Adams' Apple38700.8842939815

Ditto. When you are ready to dive under the steering wheel, don't forget to bring a flashlight and magnifying glass with you.

When you come back up, take two ibprofin pills to dull the back pain.

If you have the original 1982 Corvette Owner's manual, it should show the layout of the fuses.
