Fuses.

Post by Darrman »

I recently replaced all the fuses and found a problem. I cant find a 2amp shorty fuse that is used for the instrument panel lights. The original was blown, busted and wrapped with tin foil, so its no good. Where can I find one of these fuses or can I substitute safely for another amperage?
Thanks!
