Hey guys, I'm wanting to hard wire my phone charger and FM transmitter right into the fuse block. My truck doesn't have a defogger or air conditioning so I could use either of those empty spots. Problem is, neither have the (-) side terminal on the back of the fuse block. Anyone know where to source them? Are there universal ones available that'd fit? Appreciate the help.

You may be able to get female terminals to fit into the fuse block. You have ATC style fuses, right? (Two small blades that extend from each side of the fuse). You may have to remove the vinyl or plastic insulators that come assembled with the crimp on connectors, I'd recommend using heat shrink to the wires once you crimp them anyway. The little tabs that hold them in may not lineup you'll have to compare with the existing ones in your fuse lock for other circuits. There are different sizes that depend on the size of wire and terminal that is inserted.

Most electrical suppliers should be able to find the right one. Here is an example http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/POWER- ... Pid=search
