Senator Fuse Board

I am trying to rewire my 89 senator and update the stero and noticed that i have 2 fuses with nothing attached. 1 was LTR and i forgot the other one, does anyone out there have a photo with labels of where each fuse should be connected to?

I also noticed the cig liter was connected to the ignition for power source, that didn't seem logical to me as in cars it is always connected to a direct power source.

Any help ou guys can provide i would appriecate it, i will try to upload a photo when i get home today.
 
On my Starliner there was two main feeds coming from the battery up to the cockpit. At some point one of them had fuse holder that was pretty well buried by the transom dissolve. Rather than repair it correctly, someone decided to just jump power from the remaining feed to the dead wire and therefore return power to the components that stopped working. I found it while cleaning up the wiring and made the decision to replace both the good main fuse and the damaged one with modern, blade type. I still would like to rewire the entire boat but have it pretty well cleaned up now.

I also notice this with mine. I used one of the fuses to wire up my radio. I think empty's were left for add-on's like radios. The problem I found with the glass type fuses is that over time they lose power because of moisture. I cleaned them up with a small wire brush on a cordless drill ( disconnect battery first ). Worked for me. I plan to replace all with a new blade type fuse panel. Just my thoughts.
