I got mine from Canadian Tire, so I imagine you guys down south should be able to get it from any large store that has car accesories. The 80 amp fuse is not an RX-7 specialty item.

I dont think he is talking about stereo fuses... He means the main black fuse in the engine compartment. You can get this from any auto parts store such as shucks or your local auto parts. Shouldn't be too hard to find at all.

Of all the funny places to find these things, KMart actually stocks them.&nbsp WalMart *might* stock them also...

You can't actually pull the 80 amp main fuse, you have to take the fuse block apart to get it out. Its not a regular fuse, but it looks like one. If yours is blown, figure out why, and get a new one from the dealer, or pull a fuse block out of a junker.
