    where can I buy this kind of fuse

    This fuse link belongs to a Mercedes Benz. I have soldered the filament of the 40 amps fuse and I do not know if it works. The dealer does not have it and want to sell me the whole module. Are there ways I can go around it?

    I'm moving over to LED. Where is the most effective sales outlet?

    I bought a single LED bulb today and was suppressed at the cost. As I'm intending to move over to LED which means changing all the bulbs in the house I'm looking for the best place to buy from and that means service not just price.
