TX Fusable Link possible supplier

I was searching around for replacement fusable links and came across this.

Figured I would share with anyone who was needing new fusable links. They are about $3 each. You cut to fit, 18ga. fusable link.

Throwing that out there for you guys.

I've actually gotten fusable links from NAPA that were cut to fit. I like the factory mazda ones way better though.

I use the PAL fuses. They fit perfectly as replacements in the old fusible link sockets.
They come in different AMPs, I think you need 2 of the same amperage and one
thats larger.

You can find them in any big box autoparts store. They look like this:

Darn it Tim, you beat me to it!

Those are exactly what I use as well, they just plug right in. I think you need two 30 amps and 1 50 amp, or maybe it's 20/30, can't really remember. It is the middle one that takes the higher amperage though, the two outside are the lighter ones...

+1 on the plastic housed replacements, I have been using them for many years. Two yellows and a pink will do ya.

TX you guys are killing me...

I put an FC fuse block in the engine bay and no longer have fusible links. I just put that out there for the "Purist" guys as another source to get fusible links.

=)

ROFL, totally missed the point guys

I got the point but the PALs are a better option than the old tech fusible links.

If your going for a concours judging then, yeah, the fusible link wires are the
way to go.

I did keep my old ones as backups
