The radio already has a fuse in it with the reckless I got it didn't worry about another fuse but a 10 should be good if it blows then go up to a 15 its not that big of a drain on the system

I have one too. Hate to tell you, but your going to be **** out of luck getting the right things you ordered. Alex is a tool and since he has your money he treat you like crap.

Good luck! I'd send it back if I were you or had to do it again
