    Hello All
    I ran a wire down the hole that goes from the A Pillar to the fuse area of my 2010 Prius in preparation to power my camera
    How I did it was I used a coat hanger to find the hole and then taped the camera wire including the little plastic fuse receptacle on the coat hanger and pulled it though

    The wire came through but the little plastic fuse receptacle with the fuse got stuck
    so I pullled the wires through down to the fuse box and left the little fuse receptacle in there

    I can get another inline fuse receptacle

    Now the little fuse and plastic receptacle are stuck in that passage with whatever else is in there

    Do I need to worry that this may cause problems later?
    Does it get hot down that tube or does a lot of electricity go through there?

    Newbie Just wondering

    Thanks

    What happens when that fuse blows and you can't replace it? Might as well do a whole new run
