Default Cig lighter/ AC fuse is blown. Where can I get a new fuse

I blew my cig lighter while I was putting in my iPod player that connects to my cig lighter. So now my AC don't work. My question is, where can I buy a new fuse? Wud they have it at autozone, or wud I have to go to a Lexus dealer?

Autozone would have it. You can buy a variety box which has a bunch of fuses too for the future. If there's a harbor freight around you I would go there for the best price.

I actually did the same exact thing today, I plugged in the car charger and blew the fuse, I put a new one in and blew it again as I plugged the charger in, so I just put in a New cig lighter and done, if you open the fuse box under the hood, under the cap of the fuse box there should be about 4 of those same fuses if you haven't used them already

I've seen extra fuses in both fuse box lids, along with the SC plastic fuse puller. That's where I got my 15A fuse to replace the cig lighter popped one, under the hood.
