In a bind, installing a 3G for a friend tommorrow, help with fuse holder, etc

[1993SSP]

I am installing a 3G for a friend tommorrow, I have everything except for the fuse holder or a fusible link. Stopped by advance, carquest and napa and the guys behind the counter thought I was an idiot, anyone have any part numbers for what I would need at any of these places??? I would go with a circuit breaker or but there are no car stereo shops in my town, thanks in adavance!

Wal mart has a fuse holder for amp installs that will hold a 100amp fuse. that is what I am using right now and it hasnt blown yet.
All the car part stores here laughed at me too when I told them what I was looking for.

I just got back from a stereo installer shop, i picked up a holder for $10 an a 100 amp fuse for $5. I like the fuse holder cuz you just stick the 4 gauge wire in an tighten the set screw.

Wow, my Napa had one in stock. I'm in the middle of cornfields and they had one Cooper Bussman actually makes the one that I showed you earlier.

Cooper Bussmann ® - Heavy Duty Fuses

This is the one I used

This is another one that Cooper has in their catalogue

I dug thru some old car stereo stuff I had, I found a 140amp circuit breaker that is has the reset on it. These parts stores here blow ass when it comes to high amp items such as what I needed

I got a fancy clear holder with gold plated terminals and a 135amp fuze from a local audio shop. I would rather have the simple plastic holder so i may have to check out Napa for that.
