i could be wrong but...

if your sitting in the driver's seat, by your left knee there's a 4x5 panel that 'pulls' out and down; on the inside of the panel is a transparent fuze locator sheet (it can be removed and held up as an "overlay" over the fuzes to read them properly,

on it there should be an inditaction for cig ligher ( i dont remeber if it'll say radio or not (and i think it was a green fuze)

good luck!

Location of fuse box is correct. A little futher information.

1. Clock and cigarette lighter fuse is a 15amp fuse located on the first row left side third one down
2. if I read my diagram correctly I believe this is the accessories fuse, so it should do the radio also.

Little help for this guy if I am wrong. Lots of times after your pull off the fuse panel door on the back side of it there is a diagram of which fuses go to what and a fuse puller. You want to be looking for the one marked, "ACC" or "radio" or "CIG" some cars have all three some have one or two. Should'nt be that hard. I don't think you'll have too much of a problem with the fuse blowing though, it's a fairly new car and unless you have an electrical problem or are putting undue load on the fuse I think you'll be ok.

Sorry if it seemed sarcastic. I meant it in a good way.
