Any part store should have generic 5-amp breakers. The spacing on the terminals might be different, in which case I'd make a pair of short jumpers using male and female spade terminals, and zip-tie the breaker to the side of the fusebox. You can also push the terminals out of the back of the fuse box.

Thanks for the info I'll be sure to try that, it's been snowing hard over here so this should get me back on the road
