Default shims for cabin fuse block

95 cherokee country xj, 4.0 L, auto trans, Fuse #5 makes intermittent contact due to female clips on fuse block being too far apart (about 3X normal). PO's handiwork. I tried wrapping fuse stabs with aluminum foil, with no success. Looking for suggestions.

a few ideas;

* using the existing fusebox and damaged female terminals, wire a fuse remotely

* Its normally possible to get the correct terminals from an electronics supply store, and you can usually pop the terminal out, solder the wire on, push clip back

* if the two above are not possible, cut needed wires and solder for remote fuse

* obtain a used fuse box
