Fuse Taps?

Does anyone know where you can find the kind of fuse taps that go around one leg of the fuse and then the fuse plugs back into is proper place, leaving a 1/8" or 1/4" male spade connector to tap the power off of. I have seen them used on all sorts of applications but I absolutly can not find them anywhere. And all the auto parts and electronic stores around here give me dumb look like I have five heads when I ask them if the carry the taps.

Please help me so I don't loose any more hair over this.

Mike

P.S. This is for a 3rd gen truck that has the really small (cant remember the techincal term) fuses.

Jim,

Thats the little devil i'm looking for. I tried the local NAPA among others and they are one of the stores that looked at me like I had three heads when I asked for it. I'll have to print that and go talk to a staff member thats old enough to know something.


Thanks,
Mike

You are thinking of Buss fuses. The small ones are mini-Buss.
