any car spares shop or even service stations will have them
just ask for ceramic style fuses
theyre generally all 8amp (white) with 1 or 2 16amp (red) for headlights

If your buying some make sure you get the better quality ceramic holders n not the plastic junk

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true
