Sent you a PM. I replaced all the terminals in my 89 fuse block 3 years ago. The terminals had corroded bad enough that I'd have to tap the fuse block with my foot periodically to get the dash lights to come back on. Trying to clean or bend them tighter just made them break and push back inside the fuse block. It wasn't that hard to do, just awkward sitting on a milk crate outside the drivers door reaching under the dash for a few hours to crimp and solder new terminals on. Just release the old ones one at a time with a small screwdriver, replace the terminal, and snap back into the fuse block. There are a couple of 2,3,and 4 in a row that have a common terminal strip. I had a few wires that needed trimmed back enough to get to fresh copper that I ended up splicing in some wire.

See this thread for the terminal part numbers. Should be about $25 or so for a full set of terminals.
