Minimum order is 5 at digikey for a total cost of $1.99. If you need one now or in the future let me know. I only need one.

If these are the ones that go in the wiring harness, then you can pick them up at any auto parts store. It's probably not a bad idea to pick up an assortment pack that includes the one you want, and just throw the rest in your glove box so you'll be prepared.

When I blew that fuse installing a new amp, it was a long (well, ten minute) quiet drive to Kragen.

Yeah, it's the one on the harness that blew on me 2 months ago. Since then, I have been powering down the empeg before turning the car off. I finally "borrowed" one from my friends harness today because his empeg is not installed yet. I will have to replace his.

I was not aware that this was a common fuse. The kits that I have seen do not include it and RadioShack doesn't offer it for individual sale on their website. I was just about to put in my order with Digikey. Maybe I will head over to Autozone first.

Come to think of it, you might not be able to buy it with an assortment, I'm not compleetly sure on that. They'll definitly have it though. At least you've got a MkII, us Rio Car owners can't power up without the fuse.

I picked one up at Autozone. I think they came in a pack of 3 for like $3.
