No, I have no idea if it's HO or not. Model is 1987 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park LS. The WINis 2MEBM79FXHX656764. Most of this is obvious, but...

I used a 20 and it blew that!

I would reduce the fuse to 15 or 20 as the 30 will not protect the wires. The wires are too thin and will fuse first before the fuse would blow.

Good point, not the best way to accomplish the goal.

Are you considering doing this the "proper" way? With the setup in your sig, I think I wouldn't want to add to the sketchiness.
