Glass fuse box terminals

My 64 Ninety Eight has a switched assy power source I would like to use, but it only has a fuse terminal on 1 side, since my 98 didn't have a ton of options. Do they make the glass fuse terminals/holders so I can just add the side that's missing and essentially add a fuse to my block? Did a quick search and found nothing, but I bet I'm using the wrong search terms.

I hope this makes sense to someone.
Thank you for reading.

If you’re set on glass fuses, my hunch is you’re in roll-your-own territory, but Painless Wiring has a multiple circuit blade fuse box which I added to my ‘66’s to isolate the modern equipment from the factory harness which was never designed to handle the additional load. Look under my user name and you’ll find the thread.

Cheers

Thanks for the advice fellas. I didn't use the term "clips" and I think that may be why I couldn't find it. Or I didn't look hard enough. And I will be looking at a fuse block upgrade.

There are a lot of auxiliary fuse blocks available, including ones that use glass fuses. Note that for higher powered accessories like power windows or seats, GM used a separate circuit breaker mounted under the hood. An isolation relay turned this power source off unless the key was in the RUN or ACC position.
