Is the C fusebox shared with any other car?

I think I've got to the bottom of the spoiler that sometimes works and the car refusing to start every so often... This weekend I changed out the clocks to put in ones with red reversed MFA on and while doing so noticed that the wiring from the clocks abck into the fusebox has somehow melted and shorted out. Looks like it was done a while ago by the ageing on the exposed metal wires, but it explains why it's blowing fuses like it's going out of fashion at the moment. As I moved the dash around it must have moved the wires slightly and this is what's made it start blowing fuses...

 

I'll need a new set of wires from the fusebox to the clocks but C's in breakers are rare so I'm wondering if I can pull out the wire from a Mk2 golf or a Mk3 one... Then I can get one tomorrow and have the car up and running again tomorrow evening (in time for the MOT on wed!)

 

 

Going to have to try to work out why it's happened as well, though I think it stems from years ago when the earth in the engine bay came loose and flicked everything off and on while I was on the motorway... Car has never been the same since and I'm wondering if this is why.....

Yep - just to keep the info on the forum the CE2 fusebox is used on any VW of a similar age... fairly horrid plastic thing but does the job!
