In my country that little fuses are made of unobtanium.
Due it, I make a change on the fuse box to accomodate a standard size 25A on place of the little one. You need only a dremel and a plier for make the adaptation (and some practice handling small metal parts).
25 A ceramic "normal size" fuses are more readly available (at least, on my country in vw bug stores). Also IPD has "cristal" 25A fuses (sealed on crystal tube with metalic points - more durable than the classical nude fuse), and it fit as a glove (I suposse some remain for sale after 2 years).
You need to bend up the bronze extension borne for the small one on the fusebox up to 90 degress (at the same distance of the bornes for the remain fuses), after it, make a small hole withe the dremel on middle of the new front surface (for the fuse extreme)... voila:
before and after:
(side view from the front of the fusebox)
Of course, the metal only support one bending, if you try to bending again it could be crack.
This idea was taken from the BB some years ago. Sorry, I not remember the name of the author, but he reserve recognization.
