100A Battery Fuse
My 100A battery fuse has blown and I’m really struggling to find a replacement online. Can anyone help? I’m based in the UK, so would prefer a European supplier if possible.

I have bought these types of fuses for other cars (Toyota's) at regular old parts houses before. I would not expect this one to be super hard to find. Have you tried a parts house (go in with it and show it to them) or a dealership? I know when I bought one it was right on the shelf with the other fuses.
Also, be sure WHY it blew before you replace it. If that fuse blew, there is a reason, and it will blow again. The one I last replaced was due to a bonehead mistake by yours truly while trying to repair an alternator issue at night on the highway when it was 10 degrees F outside :P Major short and popped it. Pulled some stuff out of my tool bag to jumper it, drove to the nearest part store and it was there on the shelf. As a matter of fact, I would be surprised if it was not exactly the same size as the one you are showing. It is a universal part.

Similar thing, I made a 'slight' mistake when removing the battery, so I'm certain the problem 'sparked' from that!
