defogger keeps blowing fuses and door speaker questions 700

Today was the first time I've used the defogger (this car sucks in the snow BTW. Isnt it supposed to be from Sweden?!) and I had a problem. It worked fine for about 20 minutes (turned it back on twice after the auto-timer shut it off). The 3rd time the fuse blew instantly. So I put in another 30 amp fuse. Blew it the second I hit the switch. So there's a problem there. Is this a common problem? Anywhere I should check first for a short? Also, the fuse wasnt in when I first got the car. Now I know why :)

Second question involves door speakers. My car dosent have them, so I popped the grill off and cut the hole out in the vinyl. I noticed what looked like speaker wires in there. Neato. Now how hard is it going to be to find where they enter the car so i can wire my stereo to it? One more thing. Where is the amp for the rear speakers? I know it's in the passengers side dash, but I cant figure out how to remove the glove box. I removed the 2 10mm nuts on the bottom but it didnt seem to want to budge.
