For a 12V socket with fuse, I recommend the Hopkins 12-Volt Power Socket with Power Wire and Fuse Assembly, # HM55115. This socket will allow for a larger fuse if you upgrade the 14 gauge wire to 10 gauge like # 10-1-1. This will take some customizing as these 12V systems are typically made for 20 amp capacity. You will add the red wire to the battery and use the inline fuse assembly and then attach the white wire to ground. I've attached a review video as well as an installation video for you.
