Circuit breaker and fuse access in 50 style van

I find it's a bit of a pain if checking fuses or circuit breakers in a 50 style van. Anybody modify their panel under the seat or make it accessible all the time?

I've never had or even seen a vehicle where finding and/or changing fuses was less that a big pain in the ass. Both the Ford and SMB fuses are difficult to deal with.

That's assuming you even know a fuse exists, let alone where SMB "hid" the fuse. I need a fuse treasure map so I know where to start any investigation.

I have the treasure map.

It says call Sportsmobile West or drive 90 miles south on highway 99 to Central Ave, then north on Bagley. The disclaimer says “only applicable from my current residence Mon-Fri 8AM to 4:30PM Pacific standard time". I've had to use the phone number before.
