Yep. I found them at my local NAPA store last weekend, & it works great ! The 'spare' fuses do, indeed, connect to 'spare' circuit taps.

All the spares had 12V to them?

Wouldn't you use the 12v that powers the existing radio? That power is switched by the ignition key.

Don't used the power to the radio. It is always hot, even when the car is off. The radio is switched on and off by the cars computer. I found this out when I added a bluetooth module to my 2008 FEH.

I stopped checking all the 'spare' fuses when I found one close to the upper left corner, so I can't honestly say if all have 12V wired to them.....sorry...
