Hardwire to fuse not possible for 2013?

So...struggling to find an add-a-fuse small enough to fit into the audio fuse sock for my 2013. I've looked around, and according to some of the DIY threads (my350z), the mini add-a-fuse should fit. I've searched EVERYWHERE from amazon, o'reillys, shucks, autozone, best buy and cartoys. NO ONE has a unit to tap into (2 to 1 fuse) a micro fuses. I've heard of people tapping into the mirrors, but I would rather (for ease of access) hardwire my radar to the fuse box. Thoughts? These suckers are TINY!!!

FYI THESE are the mini fuses, and they're TOO BIG!

Can someone point me in the correct direction?

If your looking for a 12v source tap into the cigarette lighter...many choices for 12v power...

In addition get the reg fuse tap at any auto part store and get some cutters and trip the brass tap that goes on the spike... works fine... snug but works...

They fit in the fuse box next to the E-brake
