Any large Auto parts chain carry gp relay strip fuse?

I want to stock up on a few gp relay strip fuses. Does anyone know if I can pick these up locally or just online?

Not that I know of, but there are some Honda (?) strip fuses at auto supply shops you could double up and bend to get to work until some new onews arrive from Fastlane or the dealer. For that matter, a piece of copper wire would get you by for a while if you kept a close eye on it.

Use a length of plumbers solder and flatten it with a hammer. It's about 1/8 diameter and when flattened, looks like it's about a 100 amp fuse! Just right for the job.

Go to NAPA Online and see if they stock them.

If you were in dire need they sell 80amp Fuses for people who add powerful amplifiers to their system.

You would need to buy the Fuse Holder+Fuse and put 2 eylets on it to fit the Screws that would normally hold down the Strip Fuse.
