Default Poll: which fuse did you use to hard wire radar detector into fuse block with taps?

I know plenty of you did this. I bought all of the parts today including an in-line 2 amp fuse for protection!

Can I use an existing fuse that has a purpose or should I use the rumored cell phone fuse that is not used since I don't have that option. (Yes, Larry, I know you used that one, and it is not rumor, but I haven't seen it with my eyes.)<p>Ivan

Default Ps. No big deal snaking (stuffing) wire along roofline trim and down

driver A-pillar. Remove screws retaining fuse block cover and bring it in from rear. Use striped blue wire on #8 as solid blue is source. I used a flying tap on the hot and an eyelet for the ground. Oh yes, I wrapped black tape a couple of revolutions around wire at starting point on roofline trim to create a pressure fit so it would not pop out very easily.
