Where are the Fuse Boxes on the 2004 Volkswagen Golf?

Model: Volkswagen Golf MK 5, Golf 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Fuse box

The 2004 Volkswagen Golf has two fuse boxes. The first fuse box is located under the front bonnet, specifically next to the battery. The second fuse box is inside the cabin, behind the left dashboard side panel. The fuses control the electronics of the cabin and engine, acting as a buffer in case of a short circuit to prevent any electronic component from burning out. Therefore, it is very important to replace a fuse with one of the same amperage. Labels on the covers of both boxes indicate the location and amperage of each individual fuse contained within.
