Using an unused fuse location for gauges

Guys,

Can I use any "unused" fuse location to plug a fuse into for a gauge installation...

I notice that there are a few fuse locations on the fuse box which are not being used for any application...

Thanks for your advice...

unused position #13 is commonly used for gauges.

A 0.250" male Faston connector inserts nicely into an unused fuse location.

All that is required is to use an in-line fuse to protect the added circuit.
