That is only an hour or 2 job if you can solder, or they also sell fuse blocks with crimp terminals or set screws that use blade fuses.
***SQUEEEE*** I could just hug you !!!! THank you thank you thank you!!!! Yeah, I can solder but I'm one of those people that probably shouldn't because don't understand circuits too well it takes me a long time to understand though I can eventually get it... or at least think I do. Saw the bar on the back & freaked! There's an order they need to be in?! Uh oh. Not a quick job after all. Crap I didn't even know it was OK to use wire instead of that bar! SWEET!

Just got back from the store (again) and bought some tab pieces hoping I can make it work, but didn't know about the pig tail fuse holders - well, I saw them but didn't know what they were for. Oh, the noobie in me is overflowing haha! Lots more reading to do, thank you so very much!
